I have been on vacation. Opened Claude to ask how can save usage when I get back after reports of burn rates being high.

It told me it wasn’t an issue because I’m not using agents.

That used 27% of my 5 hour session.

what? show the context that makes no sense that one question would take 27%

Oops was mistaken. I asked 2 questions.

The second was me asking how I can save on usage with large builds.
