Power Automate - Approvals actions are taking a lot of time

Hello community.
It is happening to me that several actions related to "Approval" stay running for a long time.

What recommendation can you give me to solve the issue?

    Is the approver taking a long time to respond?

     

    Do you want to reduce the timeout of the Approval so it will fail sooner if there is no response?

    Do you have unrelated actions you want to run simultaneously on a parallel branch?
