'max-silent-time' is the property specifying the number of seconds of silence before aborting the build. For example, here's the 'properties' field of our guile-2.2 package: (properties '((timeout . 72000) ;20 hours (max-silent-time . 36000))) ;10 hours (needed on ARM ; when heavily loaded) The timeouts should be large enough to accommodate an armhf build slave that's performing two concurrent builds.
