Sandbox v1 is Serverless Containers' legacy sandboxing environment with slower [cold starts](/serverless-containers/concepts/#cold-start), but fully supports Linux system call interface. This option is recommended when processing large amounts of *syscalls*.

Sandbox v1 are known to experience clock drift over time. A difference of approximately **two seconds** can be observed after 24 hours of uninterrupted execution. This issue especially affects long-running containers, whereas short-lived containers are much less impacted.

Sandbox v2 is a modern isolation environment that relies on [gVisor](https://gvisor.dev/). This option offers faster [cold starts](/serverless-containers/concepts/#cold-start), but only implements a selection of Linux syscalls.

## Problem
18+
19+
The clock of my Serverless Container is slowly drifting.
20+
21+
## Cause
22+
23+
The internal clock of a Serverless Container executed in a [Sandbox v1](/serverless-containers/reference-content/containers-sandbox/) environment is known to slowly drift over time, to reach a clock skew of approximately **two seconds** after 24 hours.
24+
25+
## Solution
26+
27+
[Update the sandbox environment](/how-to/manage-a-container/#how-to-manage-a-container-deployment) of your Serverless Container to [Sandbox v2](/serverless-containers/reference-content/containers-sandbox/#sandbox-v2) to solve clock drift issues.
