## Slow workspace startup times

If your workspaces are taking longer to start than expected, or longer than
desired, you can diagnose which steps have the highest impact in the workspace
build timings UI (available in v2.17 and beyond). Admins can can
programmatically pull startup times for individual workspace builds using our
[build timings API endpoint](../../reference/api/builds.md#get-workspace-build-timings-by-id).

See our
[guide on optimizing workspace build times](../../tutorials/best-practices/speed-up-templates.md)
to optimize your templates based on this data.

Unhealthy workspaces are usually caused by a misconfiguration in the agent or
workspace startup scripts.

## Workspace build times

After a successful build, you can see a timing breakdown of the workspace
startup process from the dashboard (starting in v2.17). We capture and display
both time taken to provision the workspace's compute and agent startup steps.
These include any
[`coder_script`](https://registry.terraform.io/providers/coder/coder/latest/docs/resources/script)s
such as [dotfiles](./workspace-dotfiles.md) or
[`coder_app`](https://registry.terraform.io/providers/coder/coder/latest/docs/resources/app)
startups.
