Optimization

Optimize model performance and costs

Model Optimization

Optimize your AI model usage for better performance and lower costs.

Cost Optimization

Smart Model Routing

Route requests to appropriate models:

{
  "model": {
    "routing": {
      "simple": "llama-3",
      "medium": "gemini-pro",
      "complex": "gpt-4"
    }
  }
}

Implement Caching

Cache responses to reduce API calls:

@agent.cache(ttl=3600)
async def get_response(query):
    return await agent.generate(query)

Optimize Token Usage

Reduce input and output tokens:

# Bad: Verbose prompt (1000 tokens)
prompt = f"""
You are a helpful AI assistant...
[Long instructions]
Question: {question}
"""

# Good: Concise prompt (100 tokens)
prompt = f"Q: {question}\nA:"

Performance Optimization

Use Streaming

Stream responses for better UX:

async for chunk in agent.generate_stream(prompt):
    yield chunk

Parallel Processing

Process multiple requests in parallel:

responses = await asyncio.gather(
    agent.generate(prompt1),
    agent.generate(prompt2),
    agent.generate(prompt3)
)

Batch Requests

Batch similar requests:

responses = await agent.generate_batch([
    prompt1, prompt2, prompt3
])

Quality Optimization

Temperature Tuning

Adjust temperature for different use cases:

{
  "model": {
    "temperature": 0.7,  // Creative tasks
    "temperature": 0.2   // Factual tasks
  }
}

Context Window Management

Optimize context usage:

# Summarize old context
if len(context) > 4000:
    context = await agent.summarize(context)

Prompt Engineering

Use effective prompts:

# Good: Clear, specific prompt
prompt = """
Task: Summarize the following text in 3 bullet points.
Text: {text}
Summary:
"""

Monitoring

Track Model Performance

Monitor key metrics:

swiftclaw metrics my-agent \
  --metric response-time \
  --metric cost-per-request \
  --metric quality-score

A/B Testing

Compare model performance:

# Test different models
results = await agent.ab_test(
    models=["gpt-4", "claude-3-sonnet"],
    prompt=prompt,
    sample_size=100
)

Continuous optimization can reduce costs by 60-80% while maintaining quality.
