Databricks Cluster Downsizing time

Hello,

It seems that the cluster downsizing at our end is occurring rapidly: sometimes the workers go from 5-3 in mere 2 minutes!

Is that normal? Can I do something to increase this downsizing time?

Hi @jahanzebbehan, unfortunately, I don't believe there is any way to decrease the downsizing time for a cluster, as this mostly happens automatically depending on workload volume.

Here are some helpful links on autoscaling:
