Davin Potts added the comment:

To better accommodate very slow buildbots, a parameter is added in PR-1722 to 
scale up the timeout durations where they are necessary on a per-machine basis.

Relevant tests have a timeout set to some default number of seconds times a 
multiplier value.

The multiplier value can be controlled by the environment variable 
'CONF_TIMEOUT_MULTIPLIER' which defaults to a multiplier of 1.0 if not set.  On 
buildbots, this environment variable can be set by defining a parameter by that 
name in the buildbot configuration file for a machine.  Otherwise, this 
environment variable can be set in the usual way before running tests on 
non-buildbot machines.
