Yes. Is this bad? Obviously there are limits - if it gets a post-
accepted
timeout on any one node it will finish the request.
Generally I think this is probably a good thing - the data is
wanted, so why
not find it? It will be cached and will be transferred later. With
ULPRs it
will even be transferred when we complete, despite the timeout.
Interestingly (now that I have got the simulator running), this
'general timeout' appears even in simulations between nodes on the
same machine. Unless I coded something wrong, perhaps there is an
added delay or missing response somewhere which is not obvious?
