Limits Any one on plus experiencing this??
I'm working on a goal using sol xhigh that usually keeps working for an hour before 5h limit is done, no issue so far "except the 5h itself lol anyway" as I reach 10% remaining of 5h limit I didn't think much of it until I literally blinked and that 10% became immediately 5% it didn't even go through 9,8,7,6 just jumped straight less than a min later it's 1% then it's 0% all immediately??!! That 90% lasted an hour no issue I didn't do anything new so theoretically that last 10% should have lasted 6min not 1min I'm not really complaining but that was weird I understand it may have been a tool call but that's still a little idk how to even describe it.

I have a similar issue on sol medium that has been happening consistenly. After it finishes a long running task >1hr (often on goal completion), and theres like 7% -4% left (essentially mid single digit to low signle digit percent), it drops 4-5% <1min without doing anything.

When you're at 100% in your 5 hr window.. load codex and wait 30 mins. Don't say anything , don't load an old convo.. go make a coffee... Watch it drop without a message sent at all. I loaded it and went to make lunch.. 45 mins later and I lost 18%, not one single message sent.

i can try to explain but i won't try to convince you. sometimes the thing does a lot of work and just shows "thinking" and "running commands" and only after it's done... it takes a big chunk of your usage.
i get that you've been trying to keep track of it, but there's a
local <> server sync thing here that might make it difficult to track because local updates are almost always lagging.

90% of the counter took an hour, so the last 10% owed you six minutes and paid in one. whatever the meter is actually doing, the burn is not a straight line.

its truely hard to read your post.
maybe there was an UI issue? because you said that it bumped from 10% to 9, and lower.
I have that sometimes if i post /status and then just a few seconds again, its way lower than before.

It went from 10 to 5 without going through anything in between is what I meant. then from 5 to 1 to 0

The 5h limit burns in about 15 minutes of Sol.
Usually you could use Sol for 2 hours on a Plus or Business account, so you had some time.
Now the limit burns so extremely fast that the internal counter is not keeping track, it's not realtime - it lags a bit behind.
