if this is v3 then it's likely still my patch, so I can't give r-b

this is x100 increase of timeout that not only looks nice, but it should
cover for ~100 CTB messages (of len 10 dwords) in our current 4K send CT
buffer, so LGTM

ps. unless in the future we decide to increase that CT size to something
much bigger, so maybe we should connect this timeout with number of
possible concurrent messages in flight? not a blocker
