[ZODB-Dev] server stops handling requests - nowhere near 100% CPU or Memory used

Ah, so it seems that, as I leave the server running longer & longer,
more & more threads are taken up with a `.recv()` call. I think one of
my clients opens requests and does not read them/close them. Eventually
all the threads are blocking in that fashion.

I will fix my clients. But, is there a server-side fix to this (again,
using Repoze.BFG)?
Something to time out the connection after 60 seconds or so if nothing has
happened?

Thanks,
