A Reddit user reports Claude Opus 5.5 feels far more generous than Opus 5: with Opus 5 he managed only 5 big prompts per 5-hour window and scheduled overnight routines to finish work, but he has yet to hit the 5-hour cap on Opus 5.5, which also feels noticeably faster. He suspects something was wrong with Opus 5's allocation. Personal anecdote, not official numbers.
