Improvements merged within the last two days by the WebKit team: https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/170922#discuss...

For my sins I occasionally create large PRs (> 1,000 files) in GitHub, and teammates (who mostly all use Chrome) will sometimes say "I'll approve once it loads for me..."

That seems essentially unreviewable. If you can share without violating an NDA, what kind of PR would involve that many files?

A very simple example: migrating from JavaEE to JakartaEE. Every single Java source file has to have the imports changed from "javax." to "jakarta.", which can easily be thousands of files. It's also easy to review (and any file which missed that change will fail when compiling on the CI).
