That's quite likely because the system limits may be very large. For example,
on my OSX box:
--- ~ ยป sysctl net.inet.tcp.keepinit
net.inet.tcp.keepinit: 75000
According to Apple developer docs, this is in seconds. Meaning for your example
to run all 100 iterations, you'd be looking at an inordinate amount of time to
finish a loop that timed out at each connection attempt and deferred to system
defaults for the timeout value. Not exactly "never", but far from a reasonable
time frame. Of course, this can be tuned to a more reasonable limit.
