90%+ cache hit rate is common, and so you'll see on places like openrouter that Deepseek cache cost is indeed a magnitude cheaper than the rest.

My usage thus far from api.deepseek.com

  - input_cache_hit_tokens: 1,265,646,976 x 0.0000000028 = $3.5438115328
  - input_cache_miss_tokens: 18,208,088 x 0.00000014 = $2.54913232
  - output_tokens: 9,615,178 x 0.00000028 = $2.69224984
  - request_count: 10,837 (no price)
Total cost: $8.7851936928 (approximately $8.79)

Cache:

  - Hit: 1,265,646,976
  - Miss: 18,208,088
  - Total input tokens: 1,283,855,064
Hit rate: 98.582% (1,265,646,976 / 1,283,855,064)

So your cost would be $40.68 with another provider that has one less zero in the cache hit price.
