One option with things like this is to just not send everything at once
- even when split into multiple series it's a huge bulk of patches in an
inbox.  Unless the patches are obviously from their subjects repetitive
people probably aren't getting far enough in to look at the actual
patches or even their sizes before deciding it looks like a lot of work
and putting things off for later.

Not all of the first 9, IIRC I skipped one I had comments on.  If they
can be split that would probably be helpful, if there are dependencies
then it's not going to buy too much.
