Agent sleeping and first calls in productions pick up time is very slow (15-20s)

How can I keep my agent always warm / reduce cold start time? Currently seeing ~20s cold start when agent is sleeping. Is there a min instances or always-on option?

Hi, I see your are on build. This is agent cold start:

The only practical way to prevent this on LiveKit Cloud is to upgrade to a paid plan. Although we don’t recommend deploying a production solution on the free plan, if this is not an option for you for whatever reason, it will be necessary to manage your user’s expectations of how soon the agent will join.
