		brushfoot 7 months ago \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: GitHub Copilot Coding Agent My experience has mostly been the opposite -- changes to several-hundred-line files usually only take a few seconds. That said, months ago I did experience the kind of slow agent edit times you mentioned. I don't know where the bottleneck was, but it hasn't come back. I'm on library WiFi right now, "vibe coding" (as much as I dislike that term) a new tool for my customers using Copilot, and it's snappy.

Here's a video of what it looks like with sonnet 3.7.

The claude and gemini models tend to be the slowest (yes, including flash). 4o is currently the fastest but still not great.

For me, the speed varies from day to day (Sonnet 3.7), but I've never seen it this slow.
