In some environments, waiting only for 5 seconds for the link is not
enough. The problem is that the link wait timeouts, and thus startup of
the application fails.

Ten seconds seems to be a safe compromise. It is high enough to work on my
test system reliably, yet low enough that it shouldn't cause excessive
delays to get an error in the case that the link is actually down.
