Yeah that's true. It becomes O(N^2) with one factor of N being the number of commits to the repo, and another factor being the amount of CI stuff you do every time the repo changes.

You can do better than O(N^2) if your changes are monotonic /independent (or you're able to cache for basically the same reason). This usually requires either luck, a huge amount of programmer discipline, or very different programming languages than we're used to like unison.
