Developer claims SQLite cuts Markdown token use 40-fold
Original: Show HN: Markdown is 40× more token-efficient with SQLite
A new benchmark from Native AI argues that storing Markdown documents in SQLite rather than plain text can make them up to 40 times more token-efficient for large language model contexts. The project was shared as a Show HN submission and drew modest engagement. The finding is of interest to developers trying to reduce costs and context-window usage when feeding documents to AI models.
Why now: Interest in cutting LLM token costs and fitting more context into limited context windows
