They talk a lot about speed in the article, but having tried out Sol today with Pi, 'medium' mode, one thing that stands out is that it's really ssslllloooowww.
It also defaults to 'low' mode for some reason. Can't tell if that's a step backwards compared to GPT-5.5 in medium mode so I'm sticking to medium.
Edit: just noticed it's spawning subagents in 'high' thinking mode.
This is also what I noticed, it's hella slow and the quality doesn't match the thinking time. Either it's just launch day load or else they went full GLM-5.2 thinkmaxxing.
