It was higher sure, but anthropic also has some of the most expensive models out there. That cost could be 5x-10x less just by going with cheaper model providers (if one were to pay the API costs, not the case for bun).

bun 1.4 was released 3 weeks ago, btw

    My point was that it was cost of model rewrite by agents + 3 months worth of coding by lots of people.

    5k open PRs atm + 3.5k open issues. I have no idea what is the state of Bun right now, but I am not confident in it.

    I don't think there was a lot of people working on the rewrite. Most PRs are from bots. Original estimates for a manual rewrite were a small team working for a year or so, which puts total costs over $1M. Even doubling the token cost estimates, it was still cheaper than doing it manually by a factor of 2x-3x
