42. Seriously, the number will depend on what you're doing inside the lock, and how critical it is to wait for that lock as opposed to cancelling the request. Just remember that the timeout specifies how long CF will wait to execute that lock, not how long it'll hold the lock. That is, if CF has to wait because another request is using the lock, the timeout is how long CF will wait.
