Hi,
in the last week I noticed that reducing buildout's socket timeout to something relatively low (3-5 seconds) made a lot of buildouts go much faster.
It looks like various package metadata points off to bad servers that hang.
I haven't had a buildout fail on me because of setting such a low timeout -- I only got annoyed when running with the longer default.
I wonder whether it might be an idea to lower the default in general?
At least I added a patch to buildout at some time ago in order to make the default timeout configurable through a command-line option (or was it a buildout options - I can't remember).
It's only a command line option right now. Making it configurable through a buildout option would be nice too. -- Christian Theune · ct@gocept.com gocept gmbh & co. kg · forsterstraße 29 · 06112 halle (saale) · germany http://gocept.com · tel +49 345 1229889 7 · fax +49 345 1229889 1 Zope and Plone consulting and development
