When I submit code changes for a build, CircleCI reports that the build was successful but it still fails the build because of a timeout issue.

What do you advise? Here’s the CircleCI output:

> Building 91%  
> BUILD SUCCESSFUL

> Total time: 4 mins 50.598 secs  
> Email:  
> command make build took more than 10 minutes since last output

What can I do about this last line?
