I'm too stupid to read the answer from between the lines. ;)

If I understand correctly: Gerrit speeds up the review process. 
D's review process is working fine, the merge is the bottleneck.

Is that really the case? The number of open pull requests seems 
to relatively stable at around 100 for at least two years[0]. An 
open pull request can mean both "needs review" and "needs merge".

Do we need more people to provide pull requests? More people 
reviewing pull requests? Improve approval/merge speed?
