We were talking on IRC and solved this with a monkey patch method to setup a
custom default deadline. Just add the following before you directly or
indirectly import urlfetch. In Aaron's case, urlfetch is being used via
httplib.
from google.appengine.api import urlfetch
real_fetch = urlfetch.fetch
def fetch_with_deadline(url, *args, **argv):
argv.setdefault('deadline', 10)
return real_fetch(url, *args, **argv)
urlfetch.fetch = fetch_with_deadline
