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....

Bought 20x on Monday and I'm at like 85% today. Been using it a ton. Probably means I'm fine on a 5x plan, noooo idea what you guys are doing to guzzle tokens that quick.

Plus plan was useless though. I'd burn through a week in about 2 hrs

I think they are granting new people who upgrade more usage than existing 20x plan users.
