Gradient Notebooks just received a substantial speed boost during startup and teardown! As a result, you should experience snappier notebook starts and stops.

Notebooks now start and stop much faster improvement 

We've streamlined the architecture behind Gradient Notebooks to enable this improvement.  

What you need to know 

You will now need to install dependencies each time you start a new session. 

We recommend that you import libraries and dependencies at the top of your notebook or within a separate requirements.txt file.
