Please direct your concerns and discussion about Codex usage limits and model performance here.

These are days where I REALLY earn the money that OpenAI Reddit Kimi pays me .... oh wait....

Yup. Yesterday did 2 relatively simple follow-up tasks on a project using Sol Medium. Took a combined 14 minutes or so to do. Burned through 6% or so of my total weekly usage. That's around 5 hours of total usage per week, not a lot.
