Someone logged all 32 Codex bonus limit resets and found OpenAI handing them out 2.5x faster than its long-term average.

Tracking every publicly announced shared reset since September 2025, separate from plan refills: 32 in 347 days, one every 10.8 days on average, but 16 in the last 90 (one per 5.6) and seven in the last 30 (one per 4.3). 2025 had seven total; 2026 has 25 so far. Median gap is seven days, longest drought was 72 days from January to March, and there's no day-of-week pattern, which kills the "resets happen on Fridays" theory. (r/OpenAI) One commenter argues the resets are cover for tightening the underlying limits, which I can't verify but find plausible.
