It's such a good model for the price, for a lot of tasks it outperforms gpt5 at 3x the speed and 1/5 the price. The price jump from 2.5->3->3.5 has been so high.

I find that Gemini flash 2.5 performs about as well as Claude sonnet for non coding agentic flows except it’s actually fast enough

		some of the tool calling is better, its better at knowing how to use a sequence of tools in a real world scenario. things like glm 5.2 will spam tool calls like 100 times. gemini model will just use the tools as you would expect im always convinced people with takes on the open source models have never actually used them in a production agentic system
