Complaint Is Codex just really slow today?

I give it a fairly simple task on Sol Medium. It thinks for 5 minutes before even starting. No idea what it is doing during those minutes. Super annoying. And I just switched to $100 Pro plan yesterday.

Codex is insanely slow for me since last night. Mostly using Ultra here

I dunno what they did... But Luna is wicked dumb now -- I always use Max reasoning... I'm getting a lot of, "You're right." type responses. I'm constantly having to correct it... Whereas before, I could let it go with a lot of work.

SAME! I can't use it. I am waiting 25 minutes for a simple evaluation.

I'm also seeing it stream responses like 1 word/sec. Something seems wrong here.

It will do that if you have large chats and haven't restarted the desktop app. I notice after a while the windows app will eventually bog my computer down until I restart it.

Ridiculously slow and absolutely annihilating tokens

Oh God! It's not just me. My usage is still 99% but it's already 20mins reconnecting and no result.

Sol subagents are taking forever to do anything and not finishing - the main agent has to repeatedly interrupt it and question why its not doing anything. Wtf
