If your organization has heavy usage patterns, you must carefully manage token consumption to control costs. For instance, GPT also has rate limits by way of tokens per minute (TPM) and requests per minute (RPM) to ensure fair usage and manage server load. GPT-4 has TPM of 80,000 and RPM of 5,000. Note that tokens are used during the input of prompts and the output of responses, easily exhausting TPM and RPM. Exceeding these limits can lead to additional costs or the throttling of services, which can be disruptive for certain applications.<\/p>\n<p>Open-source models do not have token usage fees, which can be a significant advantage for applications with high token turnover.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-11e5438 elementor-section-height-min-height elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-items-middle\" data-id=\"11e5438\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-4d0b9cb\" data-id=\"4d0b9cb\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5261681 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"5261681\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Key Takeaway<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7f30b4c elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"7f30b4c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Understanding your application and its usage patterns is paramount during LLM development.
