Weekly limit was reset about 24 hours ago, I haven't hit any 5-hour limit, usage in current window looks moderate but weekly limit drops to 54%.

Usage breakdown also appear to be a lot lower than the past few days

Is the weekly counter over-counting usage? Is there any activities being charged invisibly or at a higher weight than shown in the breakdown?

    I have the same issue:

    • The first week was normal. Got a lot of work done.
    • The second week, I took it easy and it's only the second day plus the 5 hour limit was never reached.
    • I expected my usage to be less than 10% weekly and about 10% 5-hourly.
    • Impossible that both limits are depleted. Unless there's a bug or I'm being cheated or someone else is using my account (which cannot be the case).
