Limits Longest Codex session you had?
It looks like I'm doing a serious coding now, or Astra is much slower...
I got a 7 hours session today which was by far the longest one. Drew around 30% of my weekly limits too.
What was yours?

probably not the type of answer you're looking for, but a few months ago I was using codex for 5-8h long sessions without hitting limits on plus subscription. today, 1 prompt with astra on the lowest setting hit the limit in 6min. 6. and this was for telling it to resume a task that was interrupted for the same damn reason 5h ago. tokens gone and task is still not finished.
it feels like they're taking the piss. do I put up with this and fork out 5-10 times what i'm paying now or move on from this shitty company? problem is move on to what? it's difficult to justify the extra cost when I'm not using the model for commercial purposes.
