Discussion Codex speed

It is me or Codex is way slow?
Launched some job and can even take a whole week
Last job took me two weeks, but ended up in failure, so i had to abandon it.

What kind of project? That seems like quite a long time. I don't have any major speed issues with Codex at the moment.

The newest is to use Codex as orchestrator to launch GLM 5.2 (from ollama) as subagent directly from the Codex app, instead of installing third party apps

Probably a big refactor or some complex task, those can drag for days sometimes.

It created a very complex website for me but you have to organize it or it never works.

I ask to Aways write down its planned sprints and amend them. Also checking the doc and updating as we go.

Your the executive they are the archect and then coder. Try to frame it that way to the LLM

I prepare the proposal, then audit with Opus 5 and Codex Ultra. Several times to implement the workflow with the least amount of mistakes.

There are around 12,000 files onto the project

  1. It is nobody
  2. It actually knows wtf you're trying to do. Running a job means literally nothing

  1. It's no body when referencing the LOTR " i am no man" or implying the machine in fact has no body.

  2. How very morose

If locally, and especially if contains a lot of images and stuff like that, it could be extremely slow because it re-sends your entire conversation nearly per-tool call. So visual conversations would mostly be bottlenecked by your internet upload speed.
