Explanation

When creating a virtual warehouse through the Snowflake Web UI, the default auto-suspend setting is 10 minutes of inactivity. After 10 minutes without executing any queries, the warehouse is automatically suspended to stop consuming credits. This default balances responsiveness (avoiding cold starts) with cost efficiency. Auto-suspend can be configured to any value from 60 seconds upward, or disabled entirely.
