How to reduce initial server response time on Vercel?

I’m using vercel with Frontity but initial server response time sometimes takes 3-4 seconds.

Have you looked into their documentation of stale-while-revalidate… Deploy to Vercel - Frontity Tutorial ?

I haven’t looked any further into it myself, but I did notice it while looking through their documentation on deploying with Vercel.

I have run into a similar server response time issue on my sites, but I haven’t had the time to investigate the solution for it yet.

I’m also interested in this thread. Get the same issues.

I still don’t have a solution for this.

I do not think that will change any time soon. We all have the same issue apparently.
