    Description

      Are timeouts used in all Crowd Clients ?

      I can see that in RestExecutor, we use a default of 5seconds for the ConnectionTimeout. Which:

      Sets the timeout until a connection is established.

      However, it looks like use an infinite Socket Timeout.

      socket timeout (SO_TIMEOUT) in milliseconds which is the timeout for waiting for data. A timeout value of zero is interpreted as an infinite timeout.

      So, if a connection is established and then crowd hangs, or goes down, will the client receive a connection closed, and return control to the app, or will it hang infinitely?

      It appears to describe the behaviour we saw on eac/crucible today where a crowd-upgrade caused FishEye/Crucible to hang for at least 1 hour.
