Let's say that it averages 4 months to go from IESG approval to RFC 
publication.  (I'm choosing that number because it is big enough to indicate 
a 
problem, but small enough not to insult the RFC Editor.)

Using your estimate of 20% for this step, that means that working groups 
average 16 months to do their part of the work, from start to finish.

However that does not match either general impression or that statistics that 
were produced awhile back.

If we averaged 16 months for working groups to go from start to finish, 
we would not have serious and consistent complaints that the IETF is too 
slow.

OK, I'll bite -- where are the statistics (I know of one WG that has been
active for more than 8 years and has set to produce a single document for
IESG review; that's got to skew the statistics a bit)?
