Non-deterministic ValueError: Time must be non-negative in statistics_manager.increase_data_processing_time causes workflow to hang

While running workflows, I intermittently hit a ValueError: Time must be non-negative raised from core/architecture/managers/statistics_manager.py::increase_data_processing_time. When this happens, the execution gets stuck/hangs. The issue is non-deterministic—retries of the same workflow sometimes succeed, sometimes fail.
