A Plus subscriber reports that Astra's token consumption is drastically higher than before: on Sol at HIGH they never hit daily or weekly limits, but a single task on Astra at LIGHT maxed out their daily quota. They're asking whether others see the same, suggesting Astra's effective usage per task far exceeds the older mode despite its lighter setting.
