Don't know where your 10 seconds came from, it seems like your
settings were ignored. Manual claims:
The timeouts can be set using the four fields
inside of the T= equate:
C Timeout for connecting to a filter. If set to 0,
the system's connect() timeout will be used.
S Timeout for sending information from the MTA to a
filter.
R Timeout for reading reply from the filter.
E Overall timeout between sending end-of-message to
filter and waiting for the final acknowledgment.
Note the separator between each timeout field is
a ';'. The default values (if not set) are:
T=C:5m;S:10s;R:10s;E:5m where s is seconds and m is
minutes.

If letting unchecked mail through is acceptable, you don't need
a content filter. It will be the fastest :)

Perhaps sendmail decided to let through the message on milter failure,
but later changed its mind and kept it in the queue for a retry.
Just guessing, no better ideas.
