Heavy user runs ~7 Opus 5.5 agents nonstop for 34 hours, uses just 24% of 20x weekly quota
BoxLegitimate9271 · reddit · 2026-09-29
A Claude 20x Max subscriber shared a detailed account of the new Opus 5.5 usage limits, concluding they are remarkably generous:
- Since the weekly reset (Sunday 10:00 Stockholm time), they ran 5-10 Opus 5.5 agents on medium (averaging 7) full-time
- After 34 hours — about 20% into the week — only 24% of the weekly quota was used, despite a heavier load than most users
- The author doubts they can sustain this pace all week, but Anthropic's banked reset provides a buffer if they hit the wall early
- They wonder how Anthropic achieved this, whether it's temporary, and if Sonnet 5.5 will get the same treatment; some users report downgrading from 20x to 5x
A rare first-hand data point on agent quota economics for heavy users.
