I agree with Tvrtko that his approach with the new status is more
robust.
That said, I don't have a strong opinion about reducing the timeout
limit. But my feeling is that it running into the timeout (potentially)
twice is actually a good thing, because it could potentially catch more
issues if there are races etc. in the future.
