I just created an merge-request[1] which lowers the default timeout's to 1 second and also adds configuration parameters via apt.conf(5) to allow changing those as well as changing the cache timeout for a new lookups because in internal networks i don't believe that admins change the ip's of their proxies/cachers that often so a higher timeout wouldn't hurt if wanted.
