Hasn't the rate of development grown too over the years? It's not going to be an even distribution.
- aloknnikhil 7y agoAbsolutely. It's a crude estimation. If anything, it's going to be even more commits per release. The point being, it's impressive that those many changes go into a single release of something as critical as the Linux kernel.
- cyphar 7y agoGreg KH gives a pretty good talk about the rate of kernel development fairly regularly[1]. But yes, it's been consistently getting faster every kernel release. [1]: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vyenmLqJQjs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vyenmLqJQjs
