Reliable Text-to-SQL in Resource-Constrained Settings with Small LLMs via Iterative Retry Workflows
Large Language Models (LLMs) have recently improved Text-to-SQL generation, but their computational cost can hinder deployment in resource-constrained settings. This paper evaluates the Text-to-SQL capabilities of small and medium open-source LLMs (1B–8B parameters) under a controlled inference budget, focusing on how...
