OpenCode consumes way more tokens than ClaudeCode

Question

I’ve tried to use OpenCode for a couple of weeks as an alternative to ClaudeCode but I’ve felt that I was reaching the limits WAY faster than when using ClaudeCode. I was reaching with 2-3 prompts (they were usually a big plan/implementation, but nothing different than I do in ClaudeCode).

Has anyone tried both? Did you noticed the same?
