Additional Information

Using Python - faster_whisper from external server with dual rtx 3060
model = WhisperModel("medium", device="cuda", compute_type="float16")
(.........beam_size=5)

I tried to reduce quality of transcription (only for science) and I realize that the file is being processed well if it took less than 90seconds to be treated.
Obvisouly, it's not what I expect when I'm trying to take longer notes.

Also discussed a bit here :
