Anyone tried glm 5.3 turbo ? The speed is to be appreciated .

Context

Z.ai's GLM-5.3 page, with a search-metadata date of 14 August 2026, says GLM-5.3 shares a base with GLM-5.2, with gains from post-training, and that weights were promised about two weeks after launch. Its benchmark footnote says tokens-per-second figures come from Artificial Analysis. Z.ai's docs describe GLM-5-Turbo as an earlier model tuned for OpenClaw scenarios.

How it compares

No first-party page names a GLM-5.3 Turbo, and two searches found only GLM-5.3 and GLM-5-Turbo, so the name is unconfirmed and may mean either model or an unannounced variant. No first-party speed figure for a 5.3 Turbo was found, so the speed remark has no measured evidence behind it. The note is a question to readers.
