From the GitHub COO on April 3rd:

    Platform activity is surging. There were 1 billion commits in 2025.
    Now, it's 275 million per week, on pace for 14 billion this year if
    growth remains linear (spoiler: it won't.)

    GitHub Actions has grown from 500M minutes/week in 2023 to 1B minutes/week
    in 2025, and now 2.1B minutes so far this week.

    So we're pushing incredibly hard on more CPUs, scaling services, and
    strengthening GitHub’s core features.

I don't envy the scaling issues the GitHub engineers are facing! #HugOps
