> where changes were pretty much instantaneous I don't know if I hit an exception, but I added a small change (a single clarifying example) to the RegEx page, which was listed on the dev environment's history for ages before actually becoming active.

But yes, of course it'd still be good to keep an eye on the contribution statistics to validate those assumptions.
