I don't think we should do this. Two problems immediately come to mind.
Bodhi still gets timeout errors from Greenwave, because Bodhi will not
wait forever for a response. Now instead of 500 error e-mails from
Greenwave, I get just as many timeout error e-mails. Secondly, there
are currently 1,717 updates in the testing status in Bodhi. This means
that Bodhi's cron job will make that many queries each time it runs.
We do want to limit how much time Greenwave can take to respond,
otherwise we will just pile up cron jobs. This change effectively made
Bodhi's cron job slower, but did not lower the error rate.
