The timeout is currently 3 seconds, and has not changed in forever. So clearly something else must have changed to require the delay. Note that in the future, scripts will be executed *synchronously*, which means that your 3 second timeout will now translate into a 3 second delay when bringing up or down the network, which isn't cool. Usually, requiring a timeout like that indicates a problem in the kernel, which is what should be fixed. Also, note that vconfig is largely deprecated and you'll get better results from /sbin/ip, since that uses netlink instead of the old ioctl interface. What specific operation with vconfig requires a timeout, and what is the behavior if that timeout is not used?
