Metabase will recalculate a query's average execution time whenever it runs the query against the database to refresh the cached results. So if the first time Metabase runs the query against the database, it takes 5 minutes to return results, the average execution time will be 5 minutes. If the next query against the database takes 7 minutes to return, Metabase will update the average to 6 minutes (the average of 5 and 7 is 6).

There is one thing to know about the Custom reports collection: its metadata resets whenever Metabase restarts. While you are able to temporarily rename the Custom reports collection, or give it a description or an Official badge, Metabase will drop this collection's metadata when it restarts. But rest assured that Metabase will preserve any questions, models, events, or dashboards that you add to the Custom reports collection.
