# Why are my renderings slow ?

Sometimes, when using certains capabilities of Gepetto, your renderings may take a few minutes to run.

# Cold start / boot

To make good use of resources, we only run the models that are actually being used. When a model hasn’t been used for a little while, we turn it off.

When you start a rendering, the speed of response depends on whether the AI model is "warm" or "cold". A "warm" model, already running, yields faster responses, while a "cold" model, starting up, leads to slower responses.
