Digging into the source, it is hard coded (30s for the Haskell server, 20s for the libev one). Is there some performance reason or internal bug behind these timeouts, or is it just an easy way to control memory use/socket use? If possible, it would be really nice to be able to control and/or disable these timeouts, since Snap seems otherwise really well suited for long-polling applications. _______________________________________________ Snap mailing list [email protected] http://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com/listinfo/snap
