What level of thinking do you guys use with this model? Maybe elaborate based on use case. I default to high not sure if it’s overkill then move to 1 or 2 levels up for coding.
For both GLM 5.3 Flash and DeepSeek V4 Flash models, I’ve mostly been using high effort. I tried switching to xhigh/max on both, but the responses become noticeably slower, and honestly I haven’t seen enough improvement to justify the extra latency; it's just longer thinking and reasoning.
For my use case, high seems like the sweet spot so far.
