> We have an answer to this. It is, empirically, a very long time, as there seem to be a handful (possibly only 2, certainly less than 5) users impacted negatively enough to report an issue. It does not usually make sense to solve an issue that doesn't exist. Presumably dozens of users reporting the same issue would cause a reprioritization, but if no one is complaining, there's no reason to change priorities. You have enough information to understand that it is a problem, regardless of how many people are actually complaining to you. I self host git, if Google was chewing up 120gb a month of my bandwidth I'd definitely feel it but I wouldn't figure out what was going on easily, let alone figure how how to complain and stop it. The behavior is rude and bad engineering. Just because people aren't yelling at you for leaving dog poop in their yard doesn't mean it isn't a problem for them too.
