The passage around this formula
The variables can diverge because generating a candidate and proving it acceptable are different computations. If candidate patches arrive at rate while the organization verifies and integrates them at rate , a simplified review queue is stable only when . Parallel agents raise . Better tests, automated analysis, proof, risk routing, and reviewer interfaces raise . Lowering model latency alone can make the system slower by overloading its acceptance stage.
Learn the underlying idea
A fraction a/b means a divided by b. The top number is the numerator; the bottom number is the denominator, and it cannot be zero.
