I'm experiencing extremely slow performance with OpenCode on Ubuntu.

I compared the exact same prompt/workflow between OpenCode and Claude Code under the same machine and environment conditions.

Results:

This performance gap is massive and makes OpenCode difficult to use productively.

Installed using:

curl -fsSL https://opencode.ai/install | bash
