The rate limit estimations are not perfect due to the fact that we actually flight multiple requests to the LLM at once. You should not normally get rate limited in daily use unless you have excessive copilot usage. The number of rate limited users is incredibly low.

You make it sound like you got rate limited after just 1 to 2 requests?

Hey Logan, I'm not making it sound like it, I'm expressing that's exactly what happened. I got home after a long day and I literally made two requests and immediately got rate limited. I probably should have shared a screenshot because it doesn't sound believable.

In addition, like I said in my initial request, after the rate limit expired and I tried to send a small request, it immediately said I was rate limited again with a cool down of 71 minutes On Wed, Jan 22, 2025, 12:05 PM Eric The Engineer ***@***.***> wrote:

Can you include your output channel via CTLR + SHIFT +U -> GitHub Copilot Chat next time you hit this?

[eVirgil]

Yeah, I can do that. Thank you for hearing me out

Closing for now, but just reopen the issue when it happens again. We're always happy to help :)
