A response to reviews on the N-th round must come long before sending the v(N+1) round of patches. Some contributors send them after v(N+1), or immediately before, but the proper time to respond is soon after receiving the reviews on vN and having had enough time to understand the comments, before starting work on v(N+1). Only after that work is complete would you send the new patches. Hence, we expect the time between vN and v(N+1) from real contributors to be measured in days, not hours. Whenever I see vN responses arrive after or immediately before the v(N+1) patches, or worse, no response at all but just the new patches, it smells fishy.
