Claude Opus 5.5 started burning your quota in 30 minutes. now Codex is doing it in 15. a single session on GPT-6 Astra at MEDIUM effort just drained the usage bar from 100% to 0% in ~15 minutes. same model at MAX effort used to last 50+ minutes. that's not a usage bar anymore, that's a countdown. both labs quietly tightening token multipliers this week, or are the prompt caches just breaking?
