I would like the option to choose slow requests during certain sessions when timing isn’t as important. This current model isn’t sustainable for me over the month. And no, I don’t want to buy more fast requests…money matters to me. It seems this would be an easy and popular feature to add. And, yes, I know there are other models to choose from but Sonnet 3.5 is the best … > [@Toggle Premium Request](https://forum.cursor.com/t/toggle-premium-request/40694): > > I know its been said before in other threads but they are all particular to an LLM model in use and what not.

AND can we have it presented in a way that is clear and understandable. We dont know which models are free/premium/slow/fast sometimes. We want it to be toggle-able at any time.

In these situations, using a fast request feels like overkill, and I often find myself hesitating, wondering if it’s worth consuming one of my limited fast requests. I understand I could use GPT-3, but I don’t really consider it a good alternative to 4 in most situations. Not sure how your backend works, but it might even help with perfor… > [@How do you change between fast and slow GPT4 requests?](https://forum.cursor.com/t/how-do-you-change-between-fast-and-slow-gpt4-requests/4088): > > I’d like to be able to use slow GPT for non mission critical tasks and save up my fast requests for when I really need them. > [@Enable Switching Between Fast and Slow Request Modes for Better Flexibility](https://forum.cursor.com/t/enable-switching-between-fast-and-slow-request-modes-for-better-flexibility/45112): > > I recently upgraded to a Pro subscription, and while I’m working on mapping out my project details, structure, or roadmap, I wanted to switch to slow request mode instead of using up my quota in fast request mode. This way, when I move on to coding tasks, I can switch back to fast request mode and work more efficiently and effectively. However, I couldn’t find such a setting, and unfortunately, my quota is being reduced while I’m having less important conversations.
