## Status
|
|
|
|
Accepted
|
|
|
|
## Context
|
|
|
|
A slow network connection and overloaded server may negatively impact network response time.
|
|
|
|
## Decision
|
|
|
|
Make the program simulate behavior of popular web browsers and CLI tools, where
|
|
the default network response timeout is most often set to 120 seconds.
|
|
|
|
Instead of featuring retries for timed out network requests, the program
|
|
should have an option to adjust the timeout length, along with making it
|
|
indefinite when given "0" as its value.
|
|
|
|
## Consequences
|
|
|
|
The user is able to retrieve resources that have long response time, as well as obtain
|
|
full control over how soon, and if at all, network requests should time out.
