Codex po otrzymaniu prośby wita się po czym kompaktuje, po czym znów się wita, kompaktuje, po czym znów się wita, kompaktuje...I tak w kółko zjadając limit od ponad godziny wita się ze mną i zjadł ponad 12% limitu

After receiving a request, Codex greets me, then compacts, then greets me again, compacts, then greets me again, compacts... And it keeps going in circles, eating up my limit. It has been greeting me for over an hour and has used up more than 12% of my limit.
