[Vercel](<https://creatorstoolbox.com/tools/vercel>)'s Bun runtime now supports large functions and extended max duration, two betas that previously ran on Node.js and Python only.

- Large functions raise the standard 250MB package size limit to **5GB** uncompressed.

- Extended max duration raises the generally available 800-second ceiling to **1800 seconds** (30 minutes) for Pro and Enterprise teams, set per function in vercel.json rather than as a project-level default.

Both features require Fluid compute to be enabled. New projects are enrolled in the large functions beta automatically; existing projects created before July 2026 opt in by adding VERCEL\_SUPPORT\_LARGE\_FUNCTIONS=1 as an environment variable and redeploying. During the beta, neither feature is available on projects using Secure Compute or Static IPs. Full details are in the [announcement](<https://vercel.com/changelog/bun-runtime-now-supports-large-functions-and-extended-max-duration>).
