GPT-5.5 vs GPT-6 Astra
什么时候选哪个
gpt-5.5 和 gpt-6-astra 具有完全相同的功能、模态，以及带有 128000 输出限制的 1050000 上下文窗口。选择 gpt-5.5 以优先考虑成本，因为其收费为每百万输入 token $5 和每百万输出 token $30，而 gpt-6-astra 将输入费率翻倍至 $10，并将输出费率增加至 $50。如果您的应用程序严格需要其较晚的 2026-04 知识截止日期，而不是 gpt-5.5 的 2025-12 截止日期，请选择 gpt-6-astra。

同一条提示词，两个模型，经网关实测
GPT-5.5 通过 · 3 sentences
Enabling reasoning makes the model do additional internal “thinking” before producing the final answer, which consumes more compute and billable tokens. Even if user volume and output length stayed the same, each request now costs more because the model is spending extra capacity to solve the problem. In short, we bought higher-quality answers, but the unit cost per answer increased enough to double the total LLM bill.

GPT-6 Astra 通过 · 3 sentences
Enabling reasoning makes the model do more work per request, often generating internal reasoning tokens that are billed even though they do not appear in the final answer. If traffic, model choice, and pricing stayed the same, those extra tokens likely explain why our bill doubled—not longer answers or more users. We should verify the usage breakdown, then reserve higher reasoning levels for tasks where improved results justify the added cost.

GPT-5.5 通过 · 8/8 cases
```python def longest_run(xs): if not xs: return 0 best = 1 cur = 1 for i in range(1, len(xs)): if xs[i] == xs[i - 1]: cur += 1 else: cur = 1 best = max(best, cur) return best ``` The bug was that `cur` and `best` were counting the number of equal *adjacent comparisons*, not the number of items in the run. A run of one item has length `1`, but the original code initialized both values to `0`, so single-element inputs returned `0`. Similarly, a run like `[2, 2, 2]` has length `3`, but only two adjacent equal comparisons, so the result was off by one. Also, `best` should be updated after every element is processed, not only inside the equality branch, so runs that continue through the final index are properly considered.

```python def longest_run(xs): if not xs: return 0 best = cur = 1 for i in range(1, len(xs)): if xs[i] == xs[i - 1]: cur += 1 else: cur = 1 best = max(best, cur) return best ``` The original code counts equal adjacent pairs rather than items, so every nonempty run is undercounted by one: a single-element input returns `0`, and a run of three equal items returns `2`. Starting and resetting `cur` to `1` counts the first item of each run, while the empty-input check preserves a result of `0`. Updating `best` after each iteration includes runs ending at the last index without needing a final flush; the original also updated during trailing runs, but undercounted them.

Today we’re introducing Prompt Cache Routing, a new API gateway feature that stores reusable prompt prefixes and applies them across leading model providers. Teams can reduce latency, lower token spend, and keep application logic portable without rewriting requests for each vendor. Have you ever paid twice to send the same system instructions? With shared cache keys, provider-aware metadata, and automatic fallback handling, the gateway detects eligible prompt segments, reuses cached context, and records savings in your existing observability dashboards. Policies let admins set retention windows, data boundaries, and provider allowlists by workspace or environment. Prompt Cache Routing is available now in beta for Pro and Enterprise customers, with SDK support, Terraform resources, and clear migration guides included at launch worldwide.

Introducing Cross Provider Prompt Cache, a new API gateway feature that reuses eligible prompt content across supported AI providers. Why pay to process the same context every time? Configure caching once at the gateway, then route requests between models while keeping shared instructions, reference material, and conversation prefixes ready for reuse. Caching controls let teams set expiration windows, isolate tenants, and exclude sensitive content. Cache analytics show hit rates, estimated savings, and latency trends, helping developers tune performance with confidence. Existing routing policies continue to work, so adoption fits your current architecture. Start with a single application, measure the results, and expand as needed. Available today in the dashboard and API, with documentation and examples to guide your first deployment.

GPT-5.5 和 GPT-6 Astra 哪个更便宜？
按「输入 / 1M token」算，GPT-5.5 更便宜（$5 对 $10，相差 2.0×）。其他计费项的结论可能相反，完整价格见上方表格，实际成本取决于你的用量构成。
不用分别集成两次，就能对 GPT-5.5 和 GPT-6 Astra 做 A/B 测试吗？
可以。两个模型走同一个 OpenAI 兼容端点，用同一个 API key，切换时只要改一行里的模型名，所以可以给两个模型各分一部分流量，直接对比账单。
GPT-5.5 和 GPT-6 Astra 支持提示词缓存吗？
支持。两个模型的缓存读取价都低于各自的输入价，所以前缀能反复命中缓存的负载，实际成本会比按官网价估算的低。具体的缓存读取价见上方价格表。
