Developer Suggests Queuing Over Hard Limits for AI Agent Compute Constraints

Criticizing current LLM platforms for their hard usage limits (e.g., 5-hour caps), a developer argues that such thresholds are an under-engineered solution to compute constraints.

Instead of completely stopping an AI agent during high-stress periods, he suggests implementing a queuing system. Letting an agent wait for available resources is far preferable to having it abruptly terminated, ensuring the integrity of long-running agentic workflows.
