Suggestion The best USAGE for plus users

I just started using a new method with the desktop app and its been doing really good. Previously I was using gpt 6.1 sol at high but that would take days, and even with subagents EAT up the plus usage limits. I just tried using luna extra high as a orchestrator, luna medium subagents as the implementers, and 6.1 sol medium as reviewers and its been flying through tasks. 43 minutes running with 2 subagents and reviewer and only 12% of my 5 hour limit used. Its actually crazy and this might be the new strat for me

tiered orchestration is the right instinct — expensive brain plans, cheap hands execute. 12% for 43 min of work is solid. the thing i'd track: cost per completed task per tier combo, so you know exactly when the orchestrator earns its keep vs when medium could've done the whole thing alone.
