Explanation
Snowflake's billing for virtual warehouses is per-second, with a minimum of 60 seconds for each time the warehouse is started or resumed. Therefore, if a warehouse runs for 61 seconds, it is billed for 61 seconds. If it is then shut down and restarted, running for an additional 30 seconds, it is billed for another 60 seconds (the minimum charge for a restart), totaling 121 seconds.
