Present information around running pipeline activities in GitLab CI
Problem to solve
Currently there is no way for users to understand the potential optimization points in a running pipeline without constant vigilance. Users expect some sort of metrics to guide their further steps.
Intended users
User experience goal
By providing information on the potential bottlenecks and area of waste in the pipelines, these metrics/data could play a big role in allowing them to optimize and reduce inefficiency.

Actionable: Highlight bottlenecks and waste in pipeline runs
Proposal
Introduce a section in the pipeline overview page (example) to display the metrics for running pipeline, highlighting the bottlenecks identified as following(as identified from this highlight):
- Jobs that take the maximum time
- Workflows with failing tests
- Predict failures
