> [CI] Set job timeouts on GitHub Actions
> ---------------------------------------
>
> Key: ARROW-12442
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-12442
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: Continuous Integration
> Reporter: Antoine Pitrou
> Priority: Critical
>
> The default timeout for a single job in Github Actions is 6 hours:
> [https://docs.github.com/en/actions/reference/workflow-syntax-for-github-actions#jobsjob_idtimeout-minutes]
> While our jobs normally do not exceed 1 hour of runtime (and most of them are
> far quicker), sometimes some network issues may lead a job to take up the
> full 6 hours before timing out. Not only does this contribute to our own
> build queue growing unnecessarily, but it also impedes other Apache projects,
> since the number of jobs which can be run in parallel is capped at the
> organization level.
> We should therefore configure job timeouts which reflect our expectation of
> the overall runtime for each job. 1 hour should be a safe value for most of
> them, and would already dramatically reduce the impact of network issues.
