Limit clearPushStartTimes to the test pool key.

clearPushStartTimes deletes every entry in the package-level pushStartTimes map. These tests call t.Parallel(), so one test's t.Cleanup can remove another test's start time between RecordImagePushStarted and RecordImagePushCompleted / RecordImagePushFailed. Duration tests can then miss an observation and fail under -count.

Delete only the pool key owned by the test. Prefer cleanup (and an optional start-of-test reset) for that key only.

Proposed fix 
-// clearPushStartTimes removes all entries from the package-level pushStartTimes
-// sync.Map so that stale entries do not accumulate across -count iterations.
-func clearPushStartTimes(t *testing.T) {
-	t.Helper()
-	pushStartTimes.Range(func(key, value any) bool {
-		pushStartTimes.Delete(key)
-		return true
-	})
-}
+// clearPushStartTime removes the given pool entry from the package-level
+// pushStartTimes sync.Map so tests do not leave or remove shared state for
+// other parallel tests.
+func clearPushStartTime(t *testing.T, pool string) {
+	t.Helper()
+	pushStartTimes.Delete(pool)
+}

Update each call site to pass its pool, for example:

-	t.Cleanup(func() { clearPushStartTimes(t) })
+	t.Cleanup(func() { clearPushStartTime(t, pool) })

For TestRecordImagePushCompleted / TestRecordImagePushFailed, use "worker2" / "worker3" (or local pool variables) the same way.

clearPushStartTimes to accept a test-owned pool key and delete only that key
from pushStartTimes, then update every call site—including
TestRecordImagePushCompleted and TestRecordImagePushFailed—to pass its unique
pool value. Register cleanup for that key and preserve any needed start-of-test
reset without clearing entries belonging to parallel tests.
