Description
JDK-8212220 increased the default timeout to 300 seconds/5 minutes
in order to get back to the total timeout value of 20 minutes when the
default timeout factor 4 is in use. The frequency has been reduced back
to being rare (like when the default timeout factor was 10).

Since 2018.10.24, we have seen a total of 3 failures in the jdk/jdk CI
testing: 10.31, 11.06, and 11.09. The longest of those timeouts was
24 minutes 28 seconds.

With a default timeout of 420 seconds and a default timeout factor
of 4, we'll have a total timeout value of 28 minutes.
