Speaking from experience working on CI at a large company, I'm sure they've "just got a 2x CI machine" about 6 times. At some point you can't just burn more money and you need to optimise

Computers are usually way cheaper than people. The difference would just be Cap Ex vs Op Ex. That being said, they must be burning zillions of cycles rebuilding code that hasn't changed by using a monorepo.

Maybe I misread the article, but I thought they used tools to ensure they only rebuilt parts of the dependency graph, not wasting zillions of cycles?

That’s how I understood it as well.
