Easily 5-10x or even more in certain special cases (when it'd take me a lot of upfront effort to get context on some problem domain). And it can do all the "P2"s that I'd realistically never get to. There was a day where I landed 7 small-to-medium-size pull requests before lunch.

There are also cases where it fails to do what I wanted, and then I just stop trying after a few iterations. But I've learned what to expect it to do well in and I am mostly calibrated now.

The biggest difference is that I can have agents working on 3-4 parallel tasks at any given point.



This has been my experience too. Certain tickets that would’ve taken me hours (and in one case, days), I’ve been able to finish in minutes.

Other tasks take maybe the same amount of time.

But just autocomplete saves micro-effort all day long.
