node-redis did end up passing for me on an arm64 unit in Canonistack
although I didn't need to make any changes to --timeout-test.
Regardless, the package was added to long_tests.
I also tested node-immutable-tuple on an arm64 unit in Canonistack
(before the new nodejs was removed from the archive) and it failed for
me there. Its worth noting that the failure was with a specific test
timing out, not the whole test run timing out as was the case with
node-redis. I then ran the node-immutable-tuple tests on an m1.large
unit in Canonistack and the tests passed so I've added them to
big_packages on arm64[1].
