I never experienced such timeouts, but I guess I don't work on very
large packages or things that take more than a few minutes to build.

If what you describe really is caused by the default runners not being
fast enough, why couldn't we ask the Salsa team for more powerful ones?
Have you talked to them about this?

It seems to me that spending money in QA like CI runners is very
profitable for the project, as it saves everyone a lot of time dealing
with unnecessary failure caused by lack of tests. It's not like Debian
is a very poor organisation...
