Hi,
as part of the CI we are running the fast-tests after every build in Debian and Ubuntu [1][2][3]. As part of this we happened to see that in this environment some issues occur.

This issue is about 2 tests which seem to be sized to "just fit" but often (not always) exceed their 30 second timeout if run in busy environments.

50/58 DPDK:fast-tests / service_autotest         TIMEOUT        30.01s
and
25/59 DPDK:fast-tests / red_autotest             TIMEOUT        30.01s

Detailed logs at [4][5].
I wanted to ask if we could bump the timeout of those which are close to hit the timeout on slow systems OR if we should remove them from fast tests?
