Spike: Refine Job timeouts still not working

Note to everyone noticing related behaviour.

I am starting to research the problem and trying to identify the flow, potential failure points and their intersection. On that endeavour as already stated the hard part is figuring out where to strategically place more monitoring points.

  1. Please follow the same template as in #457222 (comment 2665264202) and provide as much info as possible.
  2. Tag panoskanell to the comment so that I don't miss it.
  3. Logs should be < 1 month old for GitLab.com occurrences

Summary - Why is this spike needed?

It was noted in the issue discussion that this issue was previously discovered to be in the Rails code, but that discussion nor the details of the discovery were not documented. As such we need to re-identify the cause and add the proposal to the issue.
