Postgres Region Migration

Hello. When I first started Railway I was in Asia at the time so the servers are all in the Asia Region. However my customers are mostly in Europe/USA so I would like to move them to Europe.

This is seamless for all of the servers but for Postgres, I get this warning
"Migrating this service will cause some downtime while we move its volume's content to the new region"

which is expected. However it doesn't give me any information or indication of how long this will take, How long of a maintence window I need to set. Is this like a 5 minute downtime? Or a 5 day downtime?

Can anyone shed some light here?

From what I heard, it should be pretty quickly, but can range from minutes to an hour or so from my understanding. However, it ultimately depends on the size of the volume.
