Codex Changelog Indicates Setup Script Timeout is Now 10 Minutes But Mine Timing out at 5

Pretty much all in the title - the latest changes listed here:

Say the setup script timeout is now 10 minutes but my scripts are being killed when they hit 5 minutes, consistently. This is on a Pro account.

I have the same issue. Mine times out after 300s.

Yeah, same across multiple projects. I basically can’t use Codex anymore because of this.

I don’t know if it’s because of the Plus launch but setup is running slower and now tipping over the 5 minute mark… should be fine since it’s supposedly 10 minutes now but not in my experience. Killing at 300 seconds.

Sadness.

Thanks for the report folks. This wasn’t working correctly, but should be fixed now!

Hi There,
Is there a way to increase the timeout even more than 10 minutes for the startup script ?
I’m working on a large project which uses many libraries including transformers and it always fails with :
Startup script timed out after 600 seconds

It takes a while to load, unfortunately it times out really close to the end :
