DPDK's collaborative development model continues to deliver an open and inclusive community, but it isn't without its challenges. Developers, eager to deliver new features as quickly as they can, will submit frequent versions of patches, including large series and large patches. A CI failure occuring in one patch leads to a quick respin and submit cycle. The result of this turnaround is an unintended effect: lots of wasted CI cycles, incomplete reviews, and a slower merging process.

In this talk, we'll explore the recent efforts to introduce intentional delays into the process to help upstream become more efficient. We will explain how small changes such as smarter individual testing, delayed submits, and improved communication can lead to a more sustainable and productive open-source development model.

If you've ever been frustrated waiting for the next CI result, or feel like the mailing list has become a bit 'write-only', this talk may be for you. Let's patch smarter, not harder!
