What happened?

I asked just a simple question "is it safe to do all?" and its thinking more than 7min, while I am writing this it was still thinking. :) What's going on?

What did you expect to happen?

Should be much quicker? I am using codex 5.4-xhigh even that is faster!

extent analysis

TL;DR

The issue might be related to the performance of the Gemini model, and checking the client information and model version could provide more insights.

Guidance

  • Check the output of the /about command in the Gemini interactive CLI to gather more information about the client and model version.
  • Compare the performance of the current model (gemini-3.1-pro-preview) with other models, such as codex 5.4-xhigh, to see if the issue is specific to this model.
  • Investigate if there are any known issues or performance optimizations available for the gemini-3.1-pro-preview model.
  • Consider reaching out to the support team or checking the documentation for more information on troubleshooting performance issues with Gemini.

Notes

The issue lacks specific technical details, and the cause of the performance issue is unclear. Further investigation and information gathering are necessary to provide a more accurate solution.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Check the client information and model version to gather more insights, as the issue might be related to the performance of the Gemini model.
