I think it makes sense to maintain a reasonably low timeout to avoid the possibility of page hangs in the event that Instagram is offline.
I know a global timeout can be set in the PHP configuration but this should offer a good safety net regardless of configuration. Personally I would use a lower timeout, more like 1 second, but again this offers a good safety net - perhaps in future the timeout could be configurable.
