The default is set to 60s. many of my dfs -put commands would seem to hang - and lowering the timeout (to 1s) seems to have made things a whole lot better.
General curiosity - isn't 60s just huge for a rpc timeout? (a web search indicates that nutch may be setting it to 10s - and even that seems fairly large). Would love to get a backgrounder on why the default is set to so large a value .. Thanks, Joydeep
