It recently started to time out on amd64 too, but not always [1]. And
when we added armhf, that timed out too. The failures on amd64 that I
checked were all on ci-worker13, which is one of our hosts that runs
multiple debci-workers. That's common on our arm64 workers too.

Of course, everything is possible.
