Motivation for Request

Reduce log size and overall build resources by timing out tasks faster.

Context

Certain builds might take a long time to be considered hanging in case an unexpected failure happens increasing the use of resources and the generated logs.

Description

While revisiting how MongoDB networking layer connects to other processes, multiple builds stalled due unexpected errors and crashes. SERVER-63872 tighter idle timeouts to under 30 minutes but certain tasks have their timeout overwritten to a higher duration[1]. Longer tasks are expected to generate larger logs which are cumbersome to work with and generally can't be loaded by the internal tool Lobster.
