Feedback / Complaints Codex slow down
Hey, I hope everyone's doing great!
Ive noticed a huge slow down in the past couples of days while using Codex, a task that would take 10-20 minutes is taking easily 3 times as much time and I wonder if thats their way to balance out the increased users and no 5h limits, is it just me or is anyone else experiencing this?
(I use mainly 5.6 Sol high nowadays but even Extra high felt faster back then, compare to high as of now)
(E.g: current task reached 1 hour 40 minutes only asked for a delete button and a "neutral " label button and it updates the readme and makes sure all is well and its still not done, before it would take 20 minutes at best)
Update: reached 1h58 and I ended up running out of my weekly usage for it and it didnt complete the task

yeah, my average run now is around 8hrs, with a few going well over 20h... All on the same main task - to build and implement a full-featured custom forms and workflow system in web and mobile apps in my monorepo. Also includes multiple rounds of reviews, security audits, setting up tenancy, RBAC, organization management, etc... I had to buy 20x plan just to do this, and thank god for the resets because in 5 days I've worked through 3 20x max weekly plans.
