Hi there,  
Since 2 days, the embedding part of the tool stuck and I cannot process the request. Previously, I was summarizing articles of about 1 Mo size without issues. Erasing the db base was helping for a while but now everything is stuck. I use the default configuration. I just pass a file path to the tool. Thanks in advance  
Best regards  
SL
