On calling a large Whisper model, with a certain longer audio file, it seems to give 504 Gateway Time-out on a POST request to the API.
I had used the model on Spaces as well, and it had worked quite well, when being tested on multiple larger audio files.
Point to note is that I started getting this error from 19th December 2023, it was running quite smoothly before that.

We’re having the same problem that started yesterday at 5am Eastern Time.

exactly the same problem here. In fact, if I try to send short audios I don’t get the 504 error. Audios longer than 5 minutes are giving 504

Hi @feliperafael @deepsync @rexmadden, Thanks for bearing with us while we investigated. We’ve applied a fix and this should now be working as expected. Please let us know though if that’s not the case.
