Hello OpenAI team, today I sent two batch requests, both of which are stuck in “in progress” status. batch\_6945c86e7d688190a2640b77553b2cc4 and batch\_6945c03e055c8190af7e32eadad774d0. I cancelled the first request, and it took about 30 minutes to cancel. At the time of posting, it has been more than 4 hours with the status in progress.
