This developer recently used agentic coding to build a system to crawl a billion web pages in around 24 hours. Less than 4% of the code was written by hand. The post discusses how AI helped code the tool and where it fell short. AI was a huge boost during the development process. Some of the learnings from this project could also apply to building other high-performance systems.
