1 Minute can take a long time in a SharePoint workflow

I was testing out a workflow I created that pauses for a duration of time before sending a reminder.  Although I intend to set my pausing duration to 14 days, I set it to 1 minute to test it.  I was surprised to find that “1 minute” took 7 minutes the first time and 20 minutes the second time.  I wonder why this happens.  Does anyone know?
