So, Im using a self-hosted gitlab server. If I register the checker, everything works. But if for some reason the gitlab is down, all Ajax calls is slow and took more than 10-20 seconds until it refuse to load. How I can prevent that, Im using the latest version of the update checker.

You could try reducing the HTTP request timeout so that the update checker doesn't wait as long when the server isn't working. You can use the puc_request_info_options-$slug filter to change the options passed to wp_remote_get(). Example:

add_filter('puc_request_info_options-myplugin', function($options) {
    $options['timeout'] = 2; //seconds
    return $options;
});
