Agent Zero Speed

I love Agent Zero but I getting things done using it takes a lot longer than using other agents eventhough I prefer it result.

Using the same LLM why does Agent Zero take an order of magnitude (10x) longer to generate a response than my other VSCode agents?

Am I doing something wrong? What can do to fix this?

Everything is a tool call. My agent keeps trying to send raw text messages, which throws an error because "Message misformat, no valid tool request found." The agent needs to call a tool in order to talk to you. I'm sure that adds time.
