## AI overview

This article explains Eager Workflow Start (EWS), an experimental pre-release latency optimization for Temporal workflows. EWS can include the initial workflow task in the start response when a local worker is ready, reducing startup operations for short-lived workflows deployed near the Temporal Server. The article covers its operation, expected performance improvements, limitations, and a Go example.
