Hello,

I have been experiencing persistent high load for Claude 3.7 for approximately two days. This issue has rendered the software unusable. As a result, I am unable to utilize the cursor for approximately ten hours.

It’s the same with me. I can’t do anything because of the “High Load” warning. Help!

Restricting users to use Sonnet 3.7 is definitely not a smart move! Cursor team, you guys are showing arrogance. Cut it out!

Alas, Cursor is making some very wrong moves, I have become more and more disillusioned with them due to their lack of respect for the rest of us

claude 3.5 works just fine. 3.7 will need time until Anthropic stabilizes their system due to the high load on their new model

you can change models, no one is being restricted to one single model.

It’s not that no one can change the model, it’s that the best model doesn’t work)

I’m a heavy cursor user. 500 fast conversations per month just ain’t enough. The cursor team took away the free users’ and slow - conversation users’ rights to use the latest model, and here’s the kicker, dude!  
As it stands, it doesn’t seem to be an Anthropic issue, 'cause Cline, Roo, WS and Github Copilot are just fine with calling Anthropic’s API, with no restrictions. The only thing keeping me with Cursor is just the function of automatically fixing linter errors. Version 0.46 ■■■■■. I think it’s high time to go windsurfing.

the slow are fast enough for me, gives me enough time to revise the code.

Not sure how it is with other apps, but the amount of calls we do would cost hundreds of dollars via the api, yet we pay $20.

For a booming company, I only know one thing: One who wins the ordinary folks wins the world. No free users, no paying users.  
The move of cursor today is just like OpenAI’s. It doesn’t have the clout of a big company but has the problems with one.  
The deeper I love it, the harsher the criticism. If I didn’t care about Cursor, I wouldn’t diss it.

You want a premium model? Pay for it. What’s with all this crying? Abusing free trials is scummy, shame on you guys.

3.7 is working fine for me

I was just about to buy a PRO subscription. Do you have claude 3.7 working with slow pools? This is a question I’m still looking for an answer to for a long time, I hope you can answer it
