             Summary: Allow close of channel without having to wait for server
                 Key: TINKERPOP-2336
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-2336
             Project: TinkerPop
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: driver
    Affects Versions: 3.3.10
            Reporter: Stephen Mallette
            Assignee: Stephen Mallette


The java driver hangs about waiting for results to return after a 
{{Client.close()}} is called. That creates problems if there is a desire to 
kill the client but there is a long run query on the server and that query is 
configured to an especially long timeout. I think there just needs to be a 
configuration for the amount of time the client will wait for results before 
just giving up and shutting down. A byproduct of this change is that by 
allowing the {{Client}} to close the channel while a query is executing creates 
a cancellation sort of functionality which should issue an interrupt to the 
traversal executing on the server. 

With this change in place it sort of creates a feature somewhat at odds with 
the session "close" message which tries to release a specific session. The 
problem with that message is that it really is only useful if there is not 
already a message ahead of it getting processed and stuck otherwise it is 
queued and won't be processed until the message ahead of it is handled. 
Obviously, if the goal is to kill the session because of a long run process 
then this feature becomes a bit unhelpful. If the close of the channel 
accomplishes the same thing as the close message then I think we would want to 
deprecate the close message and remove it for 3.5.0.
