Agno Pitches Sub-Microsecond Agent Instantiation as the Speed Play in Frameworks

GitHub·low signal

Agno (formerly Phidata) is drawing attention for a runtime that reportedly initializes an agent in under 2 microseconds using roughly 3.75 KB of memory per instance, positioning it around fast, small, composable agents. Figures are the project's own claims and its live star count was not independently confirmed here, so treat as a single-source performance signal. Builder takeaway: as agent counts scale into the thousands per workflow, per-instance startup and memory footprint are becoming real selection criteria — not just model quality.
