Replit is expanding a VM upgrade that reduces container restarts to all users, including free-tier users, and is upgrading all network connections to Google Cloud's Premium Tier, which is 40%+ faster than Standard tier. The changes are enabled by Replit's Margarine storage system and a deeper partnership with Google.

## Evidence

Verbatim from https://replit.com/blog/faster-networking:

> We are now expanding this upgrade to 100% of users. Even if you're on our free tier, you'll get to experience longer, uninterrupted, deep work sessions.
