Hi Chris,

I was hoping to get a handle on if the timeout was just borderline
around the 10 seconds and then try to figure out how to catch
just why the timeout even gets that high in the first place. Local
testing with the logging in this patch shows the vast majority
of the runs are 1 second timeouts, with an odd 2 or 3.

I can remove the 15 second increment and just keep the logging,
or just abandon the patch and work on a different approach?

Thanks for your comments!
