What happens when nothing is going on
Uno saves the computer's memory together with every running program, then stops it. An open terminal, a half-finished session, a bot waiting for messages: all of it is there when it wakes, and you pick up where you stopped.
In short: there is no session time limit; it sleeps when idle and wakes with its memory. A sleeping computer uses no processor time, yet stays reachable: the next request brings it back. This is what the plans call Always on.
What wakes it
- You
- open the computer
- A visitor
- opens a site that runs on it
- Your bot
- gets a message on its webhook
Uno holds the request, wakes the computer and passes the request on. In production on 3 October 2026, restoring memory took a median 12 ms (60 ms for nine in ten). A wake-up through the console, start to finish, took a median 118 ms.
Wake-up time, production
Lower is better. Measured 3 October 2026.

| Option | ms | Shape |
|---|---|---|
| Restoring memory, median | 12 | On the node, from the 3 October 2026 measurement |
| Restoring memory, nine in ten | 60 | On the node, 90th percentile |
| Console wake-up, median | 118 | From the request to a computer that answers |
What it means for a bot or a site
A Telegram bot that gets a message every few hours sleeps in between and answers when one arrives, as long as it takes messages by webhook: a bot on long polling cannot wake a sleeping computer. The backend of a site sleeps when nobody visits. An agent that finished its task sleeps until you send the next one. You keep one real Linux computer with root for $5 a month, and it works only when there is something to do.
What keeps it awake
In practice, a long job or an agent working overnight keeps it awake. A build that runs for an hour or an agent that works through the night is never cut off. The sleep clock starts when the work ends. Close the laptop and nothing changes: the work lives on the computer in the cloud, not on yours.
What sleeping earns you
The rule: every hour a computer sleeps earns one boost, up to the monthly cap of your plan. One boost is an hour at the bigger size below, for a big build or a video. A computer that rests more can work harder when it matters.
| Plan | Normally | With a boost | Boosts a month, up to |
|---|---|---|---|
| Small | 1 vCPU · 1 GB | 2 vCPU · 2 GB | 5 |
| Plus | 4 vCPU · 4 GB | 8 vCPU · 8 GB | 10 |
| Pro | 16 vCPU · 16 GB | 24 vCPU · 32 GB | 20 |
| Max | 32 vCPU · 48 GB | 40 vCPU · 64 GB | 40 |
What it does not do
- The times above are one day's measurement in production, not a guarantee. A busy server can be slower.
- A sleeping computer runs nothing. Its programs continue from where they stopped when it wakes.
