After you verify that your TFS server is performing well and there is no performance issues end users are really experiencing, you may want to get rid of these warnings. The default threshold is set to 30 seconds. However, it is configureable through a TFS registry key. e.g., The setting below will change the threshold to 300 seconds:

DECLARE @registryUpdates typ_KeyValuePairStringTableNullable
INSERT @registryUpdates ([Key], [Value])
SELECT '#\Configuration\ServiceHostMonitor\TotalExecutionElapsedThreshold\',
'300'

EXEC prc_UpdateRegistry 1, 'Test', @registryUpdates, 1
