time required for corrective measures

Explanation:
It goes to the amount/extent/volume/occurrence of necessary corrections/updates necessary. I believe scope might also fit here.

A similar word in German is Verkehrsaufkommen: volume of traffic, or just traffic.
You could try to do without the "Aufkommen" - part, especially because it does realte to the (amount of) time required for corrective measures/corrections.

See examples of different "degrees" of necessary corrective measures in German:
