Agreed. If the list of packages to check can't be handled by my modest
setup during the night, I won't check them all.

When I upgrade a package with a number of rdeps I deem unreasonable for
my setup, I pick some rdeps semi-randomly (mostly random, but having a
look at the list to hand-pick a few promising ones, or make sure I drop
problematic ones [sagemath comes to mind]).

That won't guarantee nothing will break, but does detect glaring
issues.

And indeed, uploading to experimental and giving people a head's up if
there's a thousand rdeps and you can only test 1% is important.
