download.eclipse.org servers stale content for very (too) long

Summary

But I run this job:

https://ci.eclipse.org/packaging/job/genie.packaging-ssh/9/console

And it indicates the correct content:

+ cd packages/2025-06/
+ cat compositeContent.xml
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<?compositeMetadataRepository version='1.0.0'?>
<repository name='Eclipse Packaging Project EPP 2025-06'
    type='org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.metadata.repository.CompositeMetadataRepository'
    version='1.0.0'>
  <properties size='1'>
    <property name='p2.timestamp' value='1746710528000'/>
  </properties>
  <children size='1'>
    <child location='202505081200'/>
  </children>
</repository>

What is the current bug behavior?

It'd serving old content 20 minutes later:

What is the expected correct behavior?

Serving new content the sooner the better.
