Users say OpenAI's extra-high reasoning mode burns through usage limits in a single day
CtrlAltDwayne · x · 2026-09-05
- A user reports that OpenAI's model (nicknamed "Astra") on mostly extra-high reasoning depleted their usage quota almost entirely in one day, starting from 49% — saved only by having 3 resets.
- The complaint: OpenAI offers no official guidance on how much quota each reasoning tier consumes, and users want clarity.
