I think a more useful graph is just cancelled builds per day? But overall I'm not sure what we're trying to communicate with the graph?

Good point. I think cancelled builds per day works better, yes. The message this graph communicates in this context is mainly related to the improvement of the UX because each build cancelled means a user didn't have to wait for an invalid build to finish. Also, it's related to the reduction of the costs and energy saving. I'm going to change the plot for "cancelled builds per day".

Looks good. I'll be curious what this graph looks like next week. Could be a neat tweet followup.
