i just dove into a comparison of claude code and openai's
codex for dev workflows. i found some interesting differences between them.
claude seems to handle large projects more smoothly ⚡, but its token efficiency is still lagging behind . on the other hand, codex has better overall performance metrics .
im torn: what do you guys think? if your workflow involves complex models or massive datasets , claude might be worth checking out. for simpler tasks though. im not sure its necessary.
anyone else tried these and seen different results ?
