# ISR on Vercel is now faster and more cost-efficient

By Steven Van · 2025-01-30

Regionalized caching cuts ISR latency by up to 80% and compression cuts ISR spend by up to 65%, on all Vercel plans after a redeploy.

ISR cache updates on [Vercel](<https://creatorstoolbox.com/tools/vercel>) are faster and cheaper, according to [the company's announcement](<https://vercel.com/blog/isr-on-vercel-is-now-faster-and-more-cost-efficient>). The changes apply automatically to all Vercel customers, and a redeploy picks them up with no configuration changes.

- **Regionalized caching:** ISR cache entries are now stored in the same region as your functions. Vercel says this improves TTFB by up to **80%** when a cache read happens within the same geographic area, with the biggest gains for users outside the United States.

- **Automatic compression:** ISR cache entries are now compressed, which reduces ISR write units, ISR read units and Fast Origin Transfer costs. Vercel puts the saving at up to **65%** of ISR spend.

ISR lets a site update individual pages without a full rebuild. The announcement mentions Partial Prerendering (PPR) as another way Vercel is working on hybrid rendering.
