No, the idea is you pay them to extract components worth a lot more than 55c/lb. Its not a scrapping system.

> Others have compressed the Linux kernel and found that bzip2's is about 15% larger than zstd's I compressed kernel 6.19.8 with zstd -19 --long and bzip3 (default settings). The latter compressed better and was about 8x faster

Too bad they stopped investing in new equipment around the time they IPOd in 2021. As near as I can tell, the newest "premium" CPU you can get from them is a ~2021 era Xeon. The shared and "regular" CPUs are even older.

The whole point of thinking is to throw more compute/tokens at a problem, so it will always add latency over non thinking modes/models. Many models do support variable thinking levels or thinking token budgets though, so you can s

ik_llama.cpp was about 2x faster for CPU inference of Qwen3.5 versus mainline until yesterday. Mainline landed a PR that greatly increased speed for Qwen3.5, so now ik_llama.cpp is only 10% faster on token generation.

You can definitely get gpt-oss-120b for much less than $0.20/M on openrouter (cheapest is currently 3.9c/M in 14c/M out). Kimi K2 is an order of magnitude larger and more expensive though. What other models do they offer? The
