Since we already wait 5 hours (300 minutes) for coverage data, we still have quite a large amount of head room. I think the only question is then whether the longer runtime increases the probability of "infrastructure failures" like when taskcluster was on EC2 and using spot instances and the instances could potentially be killed. Right now I do some "retry" and "exception" failures with the exceptions explicitly marked as bug 1922641 where it seems like the ~AZ has run out of resources which could also explain the retries being requested after 12 minutes and only being started after 42 minutes. The retry deadlines still leave us with enough headroom, and I think the meta issues on worker retries is probably something best left to taskcluster ops who can file a bug against searchfox if there's a need to slice and dice the the jobs.
