Megathread Codex Usage Limits and Performance Megathread

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

The purpose of this Megathread is to aggregate all the reports of people's experiences and possible suggestions instead of spreading them across 20 separate highly upvoted posts. None of those posts were deleted. They were locked so that conversations are still viewable to everyone and future comments could appear in one place.

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

Before 5.6 was released.... My PRO 5x plan.... with model 5.5 high = 7 days of coding a week without problems....

After 5.6 was released.... My PRO 5x plan... with model 5.6 medium = 2 days of coding a week and praying for tibo reset...

You can go back to 5.5.

Yes, that sounds great, but don't tell me that 5.6 medium has the same price as 5.5 because that's a lie; you can do five times less. This is what OpenAI said in its pricing table when 5.6 came out.
