Andrey Stepachev commented on HBASE-13647:
------------------------------------------

[~enis] sure, lets fix that.

did lookup for all places where this timeout used (for 2.0).
|| class || used for || should be ||
| AsyncRpcClient | as netty connection timeout | relates to sockets, so 
SOCKET_TIMEOUT_CONNECT is more appropriate |
| HBaseAdmin | used for all calls like createTable | ideally it should be 
separate and much larger then 3-5 minutes |
| HRegionServer | used for replica flush call | Integer.MAX not bad for this 
usecase |
| RegionCoprocessorRpcChannel | used to call coprocessors | separate config 
option is better, but regular HBASE_RPC_TIMEOUT_KEY can suite well too |
| RegionReplicaReplicationEndpoint | used to replicate WAL entries | separate 
config option is better to allow user to configure how long replication will 
retry to push WAL edits | 
| HTable (via TableConfiguration) | methods which not use AsyncProcess, as 
[~enis] mentioned before | HBASE_RPC_TIMEOUT_KEY is more appropriate as timeout 
| 

Taking into account this brief scan of usages it seems that we can set not very 
aggressive timeout
to 5 or 10 minutes, but need to clean up this in separate jiras.

> Default value for hbase.client.operation.timeout is too high, it is LONG.Max.
> That value will block any service calls to coprocessor endpoints indefinitely.
> Should we introduce better default value for that?
