A waltz beat, say. :)

So, frankly — and I think the rel eng team won't be offended here,
because they know it more than anyone! — we're beyond what the current
releng overall design can really scale to, and it needs an order of
magnitude _more_ work in order to allow us to keep growing. (And that's
not just with the Fedora.next stuff or new things like Atomic — the
sheer _size_ means composes are going to take more than 24 hours in the
forseeable future.)
