Curious what the HN community feels is a "slow deploy". I scanned the article first to find time reductions and still couldn't see how much time was actually taken at the end of it.

11 minutes is a great time reduction. (11*30 builds a day = 5.5 hours saved in total).

But I still am not sure what constitutes as a slow builds. I assume at some point there's an asymptotic curve of diminishing returns where in order to shave off a minute, the complexity of the pipeline increases dramatically (caching being a tricky example). So do y'all have any opinions on what makes a build slow for you?
