Railway duplicate environment CLI is slow

In github action we create new PR environments

This call is slow, takes between 2 and 3 minutes. Is that expected?

railway environment new "$preview_env" --duplicate "$source_env"

Full action context:

  set -euo pipefail
  
  source_env="${RAILWAY_SOURCE_ENVIRONMENT:-staging}"
  preview_env="pr-${PR_NUMBER}"
  
  if railway environment "$preview_env" >/dev/null 2>&1; then
    echo "Using existing Railway environment: ${preview_env}"
    exit 0
  fi
  
  railway environment new "$preview_env" --duplicate "$source_env"
  railway environment "$preview_env" >/dev/null
  shell: /usr/bin/bash -e {0}
  env:
    PNPM_HOME: /home/runner/setup-pnpm/node_modules/.bin
    PR_NUMBER: 1152
    RAILWAY_SOURCE_ENVIRONMENT: 
    RAILWAY_API_TOKEN: ***
> Environment name pr-1152
> Duplicate from staging

Hello,
A community member is actively working on massive improvements here - https://github.com/railwayapp/cli/pull/702

Not just to allow adding a source, but a near entire rewrite to the command, so please let me know if things improve after that is released!

Best,
Brody
