Hi Mark,

Are you talking about TCP? I think CMUCL doesn’t support it in a secret way, 
because when I was implementing the relatively new API, USOCKET:SOCKET-OPTION, 
I took following code from Hunchentoot for setting the timeout on socket 
streams in CMUCL:

    #+cmu
    (setf (lisp::fd-stream-timeout (socket-stream usocket))
          (coerce timeout 'integer))

I’m not sure if this is a “read timeout”, “write timeout” or both. But maybe 
you can have a try and tell me if it works? And if it is, I could adjust the 
definition of SOCKET-CONNECT function, to call above code when giving the 
TIMEOUT keyword argument.

Hope this helps,

Chun
