I bought the Gemini Ultra to try for a month (at the discounted price). I have been using it non-stop for Opus 4.6 Thinking, which is much better than Gemini 3 Pro (High) and it's been a blast. The most I've managed to consume is 60% of my 5 hourly quota. That was with 2-3 instances in parallel.

I hope too many of us won't be doing this and cause Google to add limits! My hope is Google sees the benefit in this and goes all in - continues to let people decide which Google hosted model to use, including their own.
