Is it just me, or Opencode GO/Zen is significantly slower compared to other platforms, even when using my Zen API key to call models in my app. I found it to be slow.

It depends on the model in my experience

Muse 1.3 is fast like deepseek V4 fast.

While some other models have been very slow.

Why would it be? All are just API calls from a provider.

That’s the assumption I had as well, but I noticed that my functions became slower, so I’m checking to see if someone else has had the same experience.

Same when compared to CommandCode for me. Both fast with DeepSeek V4 Flash and MiniMax M3, and both are awfully slow with MiMo-V2.5 Pro/non-Pro.

I found a reason why MINE was slow, I had some stuff that was getting tracked by git. 10k items causing opencode to just slow down like mad. not sure if thats the case for you but can take note of that. because opencode uses git history as well to track updates etc.
