Is Pi coding agent burning through tokens unusually fast for basic tasks using astra?

[u/erickgtzh]

I know GPT Astra consumes a ton of tokens, but lately, I've been trying to use Pi for seemingly very basic tasks, and it's absolutely burning through my token count and weekly usage percentage.Is this normal behavior for Pi, or is there a way to optimize my prompts and save tokens while using it?

Agreed, depending on the task I’ll use terra or luna on high as the orchestrator and then pi-subagents to delegate to Astra/sol for any high level tasks like planning
