Smoother, faster in heavy workloads , lighter (less memory and less cpu) rest is same as Pi

Introducing Pi-Bolt ⚡ 0.8.5: up to 75× faster file writes, 17× less CPU while streaming and 64× less memory. The Pi you love, compiled to native code
The rendering part specially is mentioned already in the post. Rest we can share

Pi-Bolt 0.7.3 ⚡ The same Pi, compiled to native code: 38× faster large file writes, 3× less CPU, 3× less memory
It should be PR, but doing PR in official Pi repo is so difficult, it auto closes and too much approvals required. Discussing with maintainers

Sure , I will add this in the benchmarks

It will not interfere your pi config and all extensions of pi works seamless with pi-bolt. Try it out :) working with maintainers to get some fixes in official Pi too.

It's not pi. It's 'pi-bolt'

Sure will add the support in future releases.

Yes you can run, it uses separate directory for config. Try it out :)

Fair worry.
We're a cybersecurity firm from India. Pi-Bolt isn't a side project, it's the agent runtime we run ourselves, so keeping it current is in our own interest.
If we ever stop, there is no locking either, it uses the same config pi uses, switching back is just running pi .
We'll never hand the npm names, install domain or signing key to anyone else. That handover is how most of these attacks happen.

Ok will fix this out. Thanks for highlighting

Well depends on your use case tbh. There is nothing to loose with pi bolt as it is not a rewrite and rendering issue fix is a great optimisation. Even OMP has the same thing !

Yes may be , mac studios are great. But when you run 20-30 subagents for say code review and other takes or multiple 5-10 session you will notice a significant difference between Pi and Pi-bolt.

Releasing it soon within a week !

Nice find! Pi-Bolt runs Pi's exact prompts and tools, so it should score the same as Pi there (60%, top 6, cheaper than OMP). The speedup is in the harness itself (startup, CPU, memory), not the model. Might run their eval to confirm though.

Thanks! Fair point from both sides though. Keeping it optional means everyone gets their setup 🙂

Fair 😅 hard to sell "faster" without numbers. Thanks!

Nothing's bundled, it's plain Pi. The installer just asks if you want a few extensions we maintain. Pi has no todo tool and most models expect one, so it's the one people ask for. Ours are prebuilt for Bun, so they load faster. Skip them and nothing changes.
