Codex has felt noticeably slower and less capable over the past several days. The slowdown and quality degradation started over the weekend, and now it is already Tuesday, but the issue still does not appear to be fixed.

The main problems I am seeing are:

  • Tasks that used to finish much faster are now taking significantly longer.
  • The quality of the output has become noticeably worse, especially on coding and debugging tasks.
  • Some tasks now waste a large amount of time and usage, while still producing results that need to be reverted or redone.
  • As a $200/month Pro subscriber, this experience feels very disappointing and not worth the cost right now.

Codex is serving a global market, so it should be able to provide stable 24/7 operation. If users in California cannot reliably use Codex during normal daytime hours or over the weekend, what about users in the Eastern Hemisphere? Is there enough operational coverage during weekends and off-hours to monitor and maintain service quality?

This is not just a small inconvenience for paying users. Codex needs to meet basic expectations for stability, speed, and output quality. Could the team please provide a clear update on whether this slowdown and quality regression is known, whether it is being actively investigated, and when users can expect normal performance to be restored?

Please prioritize this urgently. Right now, the experience does not feel acceptable for a paid Pro user, and basic customer expectations are not being met.
