Dev building SQL e-commerce agent struggles to balance reasoning accuracy and latency
GSkylineR34 · reddit · 2026-09-16
A developer on Reddit is building an agentic integration that reads e-commerce store data: the agent writes SQL queries, executes them, and returns answers for data-analysis tasks. The problem: without reasoning the model isn't precise enough, but enabling reasoning drives response times way up. They're currently on glm-5.3-flash and asking how to tune for speed without losing accuracy, and whether a stronger model is warranted.
