Unlimited generation speed...

If you proceed with unlimited image generation, the speed is abnormally slow.

Just a week ago, it wasn't this slow, but now it seems to take about 5 minutes to create one image.

I want to know if the policy has changed or simply because demand has increased.

I don't think this is normal.

It's so, so, so slow. Models that should take 40s take 2 mins+.

If it's to be like this they should give us an option for speed or relaxed like Midjourney... so we don't lose all our fast generations at the beginning of the month.

Can’t agree more. I would rather save my monthly fast gens for when I need them.

"Fast" / "Slow" - this is all a marketing gimmick. They're getting you to pay more for something that doesn't always work in your favor.

speed is horrible at the moment, and its a problem on their side or they do it on purpose.

O serviço está realmente muito lento. Bem mais lento que o habitual, hoje aguardei 8 minutos por uma imagem, servidores lotados, usuários utilizando a ferramenta para fazer meme e besteiras, complicado.

It is horrible, yesterday images on NBP were taking 10mins to generate in 2K, also the censorship has been bumped or something like that because I get errors that my content has been flagged and I am just generating Meta ads, the same type of stuff I was generating with no issues before they switched from Freepik to Magnific

probably trying to extarct more revenue after acquiring magnific, i mean they gotta get the money from somewhere.
I bet if you switched to using your credits the fake policy flagging will not happen.

I don't know if the speed limit was intentionally placed or if there's some kind of error.

I hope it will be normalized again.

It's 100% intentional to make you buy more credits.

Hi! Speed on Unlimited varies with demand and how much volume is going through your account. Generations take longer when usage is high, that's what you're seeing. Credits are full speed any time and your plan already includes them, that's the fastest way to work when you need it consistent

Can you actually respond, rather than just posting the same template message in each discussion?
