In .COM CZDS zone file snapshot of .COM from ~midnight UTC 2023-07-11
the range of non-apex RRSIG inception times was:

     20230707025004 – 20230710225021

With corresponding expiration times:

     20230714040004 – 20230718000021

With expiration of the oldest RRSIGS 3 days and 4 hours away, and the
newest a full 7 days.

Apart from some records that are signed intra-day, the expiration times
of records in .COM are strongly clustered around once a day signing
events that cover roughly 25% of the zone.  For example, the CZDS
snapshot for the 11th has expiration times clustered near:

     2023-07-14T04:00 ~3.4M RRsets
     2023-07-15T04:00 ~3.4M RRsets
     2023-07-16T04:00 ~3.4M RRsets
     2023-07-17T04:00 ~3.4M RRsets

So the affected delegations would have been ~0%, ~25%, ~50%, ~75% or
~100% of the zone, depending on how many days the issue went unnoticed.

This is very much in line with what we would have expected given a gradual increase in errors related to expired RRSIGs from the start of the incident. Initially the errors we recorded for CNAME resolutions were low but gradually increased to the point where it was affecting more and more of our customers. It also explains why not all .com/.net zones failed to resolve.
