RDS Serverless - Slow warm up?

I'm not sure if this is intended or I configured it incorrectly.

I set up my Aurora Serverless PostgreSQL Database to pause after 5 min of inactivity.

Problem is, everytime I try to access it after it has paused, it takes almost 1 minutes for the server to respond for the first time.

Is there any configuration I can do to workaround this other than disabling pausing?

yes that's one of the main issues when taking advantage from pause but downside it takes time to warm up, you can extend the pause something bigger than five minutes so it will be warm-up always as if you create connection during the time so the timer will reset for inactivity.

Expand the Additional scaling configuration section. You can disable cluster pausing by unchecking the Pause compute capacity after consecutive minutes of inactivity checkbox. Using the hours, minutes, and seconds drop down list boxes, you can change the length of inactivity time until the cluster pauses. By default your cluster will pause after 5 consecutive minutes of inactivity.

Select RDS -> DB instance -> database -> configuration enter image description here

24hr is the maximum time, you can set something lower then this but if there is one connection at least in 24 hr, it will be warmup always.
