I’m not surprised! The amount of wasted memory and compute in modern software is astounding.

If you’re a developer, try promoting Claude to profile and optimise a piece of some piece of software. I routinely see 20-40x improvements with a single prompt and a few hours of opus credits.

Thanks for your work by the way. At a large scale, it is much more efficient for some software developers to do a bit of belt tightening in their code than ask millions of customers to invest in bigger computers. Globally the savings are enormous.
