StreamMD

Streaming MD for LLMs. 300x fewer chars parsed per token

What it does

Every AI chat app re-parses the entire markdown on each token—O(n²) slowdown. After 500 tokens, that’s 500 full re-renders. StreamMD fixes this with incremental block parsing: only new text is processed, completed blocks are memoized (no re-render), and only the active block updates. Result: ~300x less work. Built-in syntax highlighting (15 langs, ~3kB, zero deps). Drop-in:

    Incremental JSON parser for streaming LLM tool calls in RubyOct 2025 · aha.io · ▲13

    Built this for streaming AI tool calls. LLMs stream function arguments as JSON character-by-character. Most parsers reparse from scratch each time - O(n²) behavior that causes UI lag. This maintains parsing state, processing only new characters. True O(n) performance that stays imperceptible throughout the entire response. Ruby gem, MIT licensed. Would love feedback.

    Reduce ChatGPT costs 10x with distributed cache for LLMs2024 · edgematic.dev · ▲22

    Hello HN! We're building a caching solution for LLMs (ChatGPT, Claude). By combining cutting-edge approaches, such as edge computing, prompt compression, vectorization, and others - it can reduce your AI bills by up to 10x and significantly lower response times. Key Features: - cost efficiency: our system stores frequent queries, reducing the number of upstream (paid) API calls - fast responses: with various nodes globally, we reduce latency by serving data from the nearest location - scalability: designed to handle increasing loads and data sizes without degrading performance. The cache…
