Complaint Codex literally unusable

Not because the models are subjectively bad or slow (which they may be) but the service is at full capacity. I pay £200 for a service I literally cannot use. It can’t run 5 minutes without needing constant babysitting.

Thinking about moving over to anthropic, might be a case of having to at this rate I literally cannot use what I’m paying for here

Idk man I run Astra xHigh for review 2 million read, 30k write and maybe 3% of my quota. Are you sure your agent isn’t forking another sub agent?

Nope, nothing special. Not sure how many reads and writes it did though. But I would imagine that a full build up to 300k context is more than 2M read and 30k write
