Have you tried Trae? I see that Trae offers unlimited slow requests of Sonnet 4? How slow is a slow request? And how does their IDE compare to Cursor?
Update:
Trying Trae Free which includes 10 fast requests, so I would expect these 10 requests to reflect the true paid service. My first request is with Claude-4-Sonnet and I get put in a queue of 91, and after a minute I am in position 89. Total joke.
Update 25 mins later:
This has to be a joke service or the worst “trial” they could offer. This is worthless even for one request.
Update 38 mins later:
it starts processing request then a second later throws me back into a queue at 25.
Update 48 mins:
It returned request which was good, but very slow as you can see.
Okay this is apparently because I used a “Beta” model, but still why even offer it at that speed. When using 3.7 Sonnet its instant, so that may be a better reflection of how fast Trae is. It overall seems a lot slower to index files when adding context and the diff changes are not specific enough, just entire sections of code. Overall, I’m not impressed. It’s “fast” models seem just as good as Cursor’s Auto, which I can have unlimited for a year of. Maybe if the unlimited Auto thing falls through or after that year, I would consider switching.
