I asked an LLM to look at review replies per week in mm (see below), and clearly 7.3 is an insane cycle, which I understand. (And dropping the THP M, remarkably, has not resulted in a drop in review workload for me). However, I'd also ask people to perhaps 'give a little back' to those who are doing a lot of review also :) review can be thankless at the best of times, but having your own work sit there unreviewed for weeks while you are working so hard to review others' work is a little much. Thanks! ┌───────────────────┬──────┬──────┬──────┬──────┬──────┬──────┬───────┐ │ person │ 6.17 │ 6.18 │ 6.19 │ 7.0 │ 7.1 │ 7.2 │ 7.3 │ ├───────────────────┼──────┼──────┼──────┼──────┼──────┼──────┼───────┤ │ David Hildenbrand │ 84.8 │ 70.8 │ 44.5 │ 74.7 │ 80.3 │ 85.7 │ 107.0 │ ├───────────────────┼──────┼──────┼──────┼──────┼──────┼──────┼───────┤ │ Lorenzo Stoakes │ 50.9 │ 25.1 │ 16.0 │ 45.4 │ 35.2 │ 40.1 │ 52.1 │ ├───────────────────┼──────┼──────┼──────┼──────┼──────┼──────┼───────┤ │ Mike Rapoport │ 11.8 │ 17.7 │ 12.8 │ 17.8 │ 30.1 │ 21.0 │ 24.1 │ ├───────────────────┼──────┼──────┼──────┼──────┼──────┼──────┼───────┤ │ Zi Yan │ 17.3 │ 12.8 │ 15.0 │ 14.4 │ 10.2 │ 24.0 │ 28.7 │ ├───────────────────┼──────┼──────┼──────┼──────┼──────┼──────┼───────┤ │ Vlastimil Babka │ 15.6 │ 19.3 │ 12.5 │ 23.8 │ 17.8 │ 25.2 │ 14.7 │ ├───────────────────┼──────┼──────┼──────┼──────┼──────┼──────┼───────┤ │ SeongJae Park │ 16.2 │ 7.7 │ 13.3 │ 23.4 │ 22.8 │ 17.0 │ 19.2 │ ├───────────────────┼──────┼──────┼──────┼──────┼──────┼──────┼───────┤ │ Shakeel Butt │ 13.0 │ 5.3 │ 11.7 │ 9.6 │ 7.2 │ 8.2 │ 14.5 │ ├───────────────────┼──────┼──────┼──────┼──────┼──────┼──────┼───────┤ │ Harry Yoo │ 10.6 │ 15.0 │ 11.7 │ 15.0 │ 10.9 │ 11.3 │ 6.8 │ ├───────────────────┼──────┼──────┼──────┼──────┼──────┼──────┼───────┤ │ Baolin Wang │ 6.0 │ 3.0 │ 4.1 │ 7.1 │ 6.7 │ 6.4 │ 17.4 │ ├───────────────────┼──────┼──────┼──────┼──────┼──────┼──────┼───────┤ │ Kiryl Shutsemau │ 5.6 │ 3.3 │ 2.2 │ 3.0 │ 0.9 │ 2.9 │ 16.2 │ └───────────────────┴──────┴──────┴──────┴──────┴──────┴──────┴───────┘
