User logs reveal Qwen3.8 usage spike via electricity bill
Unlucky-Message8866 · reddit · 2026-08-31
A local LLM user shared 4 months of usage data (mostly Qwen 3.6 and 3.8) triggered by a high electricity bill. The logs show a significant increase in both session count and average duration after switching to Qwen3.8. While not a qualitative benchmark, this data suggests the model's improved capabilities allow it to accomplish more tasks, leading to longer and more frequent usage.
