I don't think anybody talking about "latency" without a qualifier is thinking about build latency.

But it's a nice article. The idea that giving-up on waiting for a delay has a simple exponential distribution is something that I never thought. (And now I'm fixed on understanding why... Something must have biased me against it.)

It's an article about a fast build system, why wouldn't it be about build latency?
