In the area where delay is unexpectedly more, there we should increase no of AD's. AD's should give quality time in reviews.

The maximum unexpected delay MUST be 90 days ( or the period between IETF f2f meetings after that request) before the next IETF meeting from the request.

Let’s put some numbers on this (units of days)

16
32
64
128

I am inclined to suggest that up to 16 is excellent, 32 is perfectly fine and 64 is just about OK.  Would others agree? What alternative metrics would you propose.
