we created some stats and in fact not 70% but 80% of all -tip commits are in linux-next right now.
Here are the full -tip commit stats (merge commits excluded):
total commits in auto-next-branches: 617 auto-branches commits in linux-next: 553 total commits in tip/auto-latest: 686 total commits in tip/master: 699
that propotion should go up to 90% on the next linux-next iteration. (barring any problems with the new topics)
