> I also believe that programmers feel latency and it affects their mood even if they don't notice it. (Google has recently done some research in this area that kinda confirmed my belief, here's hoping they'll publish it publicly!)

Anyone knows if it happened? Has the google research on latency been published?

Not sure if it's the exact research that the author is referring to, but it could be this one: https://www.computer.org/csdl/magazine/so/2023/04/10176199/1...

I don't think anybody talking about "latency" without a qualifier is thinking about build latency.

But it's a nice article. The idea that giving-up on waiting for a delay has a simple exponential distribution is something that I never thought. (And now I'm fixed on understanding why... Something must have biased me against it.)

		It's an article about a fast build system, why wouldn't it be about build latency?

The 400ms Doherty Treshold applies to builds too.
