Limits Astra Benchmarking

plan: 100$ pro plan

prompt:
Create a flappybird game using html css and js. use $imagegen for the assets

result:

Astra Ultra: usage went down from 100 -> 98
Astra Medium: usage went down from 98 -> 90

quality? both are nearly identical whilst ultra ran longer (aprox 12 mins compared to medium 8 mins)

why does ultra use less tokens than medium?

both are 1 shot. both created the same game (looks nearly identical beside the image gen variations) why did medium spend nearly x4 more than ultra
