I have not read proced implementation but my understanding is that
entries length depend on the locale.

If you have french locale installed, I guess you can try M-x proced in
Emacs started with:

  LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8 emacs -Q 

Then if you computer uptime is greater than 1 day, the start column of
proced may display durations expressed in hours, minutes, seconds or
using an abbreviated date.  But the length of abbreviated dates depends
on the locale...

Note the impact of the locale on abbreviated month length:

matthias@carbon:~/Sources/emacs$ LANG=en_US.UTF-8 date +%b
Jul
matthias@carbon:~/Sources/emacs$ LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8 date +%b
juil.

and even, for a given locale, but different months:

matthias@carbon:~/Sources/emacs$ LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8 date +%b --date="2023-02-22T08:55:06"
févr.
matthias@carbon:~/Sources/emacs$ LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8 date +%b --date="2023-03-22T08:55:06"
mars

Hope it helps.
