This has already been analyzed. Look at the wiki [1] - graduation medians were 
20 to 42 months, but are now 13 to 18 months. Incubation is faster now for 
healthy podlings, not slower. Time to make a first release has dropped from 6 
to 7 months to 4 to 5 months, and issues found in release votes have declined 
sharply over the last decade.

Only a handful of incubating projects have graduated in under 6 months; you can 
see the data in podlings.xml. By my count, it is 7 from 318 podlings, or 2% of 
them. And if you look, it seems most were long-established open-source 
communities, e.g., Subversion.

Kind regards,
Justin
