I did a task that cost about $1.5 on API. It was 4 million tokens. That will take about 2.9 years at this rate.

That's 23 seconds for 1 token. Unusable, in other words. The title seems to be intentional written to obfuscate that.

Nice! Totally different subject but, have you tried Ling-mini on it? It's really good for how small it is and you can run it on damn near anything and be useably quick.

That is ≈0.043 token p/s. Impressive!
