Users say K3 feels fast on the paid coding plan, but OpenRouter hits 429s

The author says complaints about K3’s speed may depend on which access plan is used. Through a larger coding plan, they report no 429 rate limits so far and say the model has been treated well for tasks taking longer than five minutes.
They suggest that some users may be judging speed via OpenRouter, while the higher-tier coding plan appears to get preferred treatment.
