No it's not slowing us down at all. For fresh codebases it's several orders of magnitude faster, but also for legacy/existing codebases it has been a BOON to our development.
First thing we do is to map out an existing codebase (or a piece of a codebase if it's a monorepo). We have the models synthesize what's in there and document the architecture AND the intent of the app (retroactively building a PRD based on codebase). We use n-dx for this and it has worked very well. There's still bugs and plenty of improvements to be made with the tool (n-dx), but it's open-source so it's easy to make improvements whenever it falls short during a set of tasks
