As far as I can tell, that's what seems to happen.

Here are the corresponding 'guix offload' processes:

I tried attaching to both of these offload processes with 'strace', and
waited for several minutes for any system call activity. Both of them
are stuck sleeping within a system call, although I don't yet know which
system call:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

Here are the 'nix-store' processes:

The 'nix-store' processes seem to be stuck sleeping in 'read', if I'm
interpreting the 'strace' output correctly:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

"netstat --inet --program" shows that the SSH connections are still
open:

Also, these same jobs (e.g. same versions) have been built successfully
on hydra.gnunet.org for years without difficulty. In the case of
'font-fira-sans-4.202.x86_64-linux', it has only ever been built on
hydra.gnunet.org, with the last successful build on 28 September 2018.
The packages haven't been updated in years, and so typically are only
rebuilt during 'core-updates' cycles. They only started aborting in
late March, when some other rarely-update package apparently changed to
force a rebuild. However, the similar 'mozjs-60' failures happened
earlier.
FYI, here's the history of build attempts on Hydra:

It seems that Hydra fails to record the machine name in build steps that
are aborted, but I know that all of the 'aborts' above are on
hydra.gnunet.org, because that's currently the only x86 build slave on
Hydra.
I could easily believe that this problem is specific to
hydra.gnunet.org, but even if that's the case, it would be good if
offloading would reliably time out before days have passed.
Ideally, the timeout would be a "max-silent-time" kind of timeout, so
that we don't impose an arbitrary limitation on total transfer time as
long as progress is being made, and so that the timeout can be
relatively short. However, even a "total-transfer-time" kind of timeout
would be welcome at this point, to stop the profuse bleeding of Hydra's
limited x86 build capacity.
What do you think?
