Open the **Regions** page in the dashboard and set `us-east-1-next` as the project-wide default. This applies to **all environments in the project**, so only do this on a project that is running staging traffic only.
## Cold start expectations
<Note>
Switching the default region doesn't move runs that are already in the queue - they stay in the previous region until they execute. To make a switch take effect for in-flight work, [cancel those runs](/bulk-actions) and re-trigger them after changing the default. This applies whenever you change regions, not just when moving on or off `us-east-1-next`.

## Machine sizes
A few things to be aware of during the beta:
- **`small-1x` is the default and what we've optimized for.** Boot snapshots are precreated for `small-1x` only. Other machine sizes will have a slower first run after each deploy while we generate the snapshot - subsequent runs use it.
- **`small-1x` is the default and what we've optimized for.** Boot snapshots are precreated for `small-1x` only - other sizes generate the snapshot lazily on first run after a deploy.
- **`small-2x`, `medium-1x`, and `medium-2x` work, but the first run after each deploy is slower** while the boot snapshot is generated. Subsequent runs use it.
- **`large-1x` and `large-2x` aren't supported yet.** Stick to `small-*` or `medium-*` for now.
- **Avoid `micro` during the beta.** Cold starts on `micro` are noticeably slower than other sizes.
- **All sizes are capped at 1GB of disk during the beta.** The [machine size table](/machines) lists 10GB as the target, but every preset is currently provisioned with 1GB regardless.
We'll be shipping CLI and SDK changes during the beta to make cold start times more consistent across machine sizes. Compute-specific prereleases will be announced on this page as we go, and we'll also reach out on Slack.
