The speed of GLM 5.3 Flash on OpenRouter seems to vary considerably by provider. Some are fast and some are slow. OpenRouter does provide some tuning knobs, but not enough for my taste. It’s also token-heavy with reasoning, though I found it better than Deepseek V4 Flash previously.

Same experience here.

But man, switch to V4.1 now! It is much better.

I don't event need to test it for long run and I believe it's crazy good. I call it "AI era model taste" when I judge the model by it's output without reading the bench scores.

I’ve just tried, it’s now my new favorite Flash model
