is something that has caused a timeout regression in avocado-system-centos:

Timeouts are especially tedious with gitlab, because they're not usually consistent, and
often go away with a retry. If I don't see the same failure on my local machine, I often
let it go.
But in this case, the gitlab ci regression has been consistent, not passing a single time
since. Which makes me think this is not just a ci artifact, but that there's a real
slowdown. Could you please have a look?
