Absolute number, no.  Speed of availability, possibly.

The main determinant of the latter has been processor horsepower
available to us.  This was greatly increased in 2011 due to both
hardware donations, and hardware purchases by the FreeBSD Foundation.

I am hopeful that 2012 will finally show the fruits of the work
that was done in 2011.
