Tests have not finished running - but I already see one intermittent failure: `java/net/httpclient/RedirectTimeoutTest.java` is timing out intermittently on windows. It would be good to flush out any such intermittent failures before this PR is integrated. This might require multiple runs before we can get confidence.

My change of timeout factor to `0.7` is only temporal, as I said: it will be reverted to `4` before integration. Naturally, a few test cases will timeout when I do this /temporal/ change, hopefully `java/net/httpclient/RedirectTimeoutTest.java` will behave well with a timeout factor of `1` instead of `0.7`, but note that I will revert the timeout factor to `4` before integration. 

The whole idea of running with a timeout factor of `0.7` is to remove intermittent failures. (I had it close to 0.5 or maybe less to begin with until I found and reported CODETOOLS-7903937: JTREG uses timeout factor on socket timeout but not on KEEPALIVE)
