I concur that this is problematic. Today, I spent several hours
shepherding my multiple MRs through the process, which was
additionally complicated by David and Valentin doing the same.

Could we increase parallelism on the runners, so they complete more
quickly? If we dial up the build speed, so they take only 10 minutes
instead of 40 minutes, merging will be much less painful. I have
several changes out that will increase parallelism the doc build.
