A Claude Max 20 subscriber reported on Reddit that using claude code causes an abnormal drain on usage quotas. After ruling out concurrent sessions and heavy operations, 21% of the 5-hour quota vanished in just 5 to 7 minutes of normal use. The community is debating whether this is due to background tool calls or a quota-tracking bug on Anthropic's end.
