UnverifiedFor 80% of everyday coding tasks, the performance gap between lightweight models and flagship models is within 5%, but the cost difference can be 20–50 times.77% similarUnverifiedModels with larger parameter counts and more reasoning steps may consume 10–50 times the GPU compute of lightweight models.72% similarUnverified旗舰模型的单次推理成本可能是轻量模型的数十乃至上百倍，源于参数量、上下文窗口长度、推理步骤复杂度等因素71% similarUnverified将任务复杂度与模型能力匹配的智能路由，若60%任务可由小模型完成而不损失质量，理论成本节约空间可达40%-50%70% similarUnverifiedReasoning models may consume several times or even more than ten times the output tokens, directly driving up API call costs.69% similar
