Between ~6 weeks (lands right before a new beta is branched, beta is 6 weeks long) and ~12 weeks (lands right after a beta is branched, takes 6 weeks until the next beta, then beta is 6 weeks). Sometimes a larger feature that would stabilize just before a beta is branched will deliberately be held until after, just to give it some extra cooking time, though this is rare.

I don’t know off the top of my head exactly where we currently are in that cycle.
