> h4. Description
> The httpclient (both sync and sync) supports `connectTimeout`, 
> `responseTimeout` and `connectionRequestTimeout`. But it doesn't support 
> complete request or call timeout similar to okhttp `callTimeout` 
> ([https://square.github.io/okhttp/4.x/okhttp/okhttp3/-ok-http-client/-builder/call-timeout/]).
>  Based on my understanding the `responseTimeout` is nothing but `readTimeout` 
> i.e. the maximum time the client will wait for a message to arrive and 
> theoretically, the total call time can be infinite if the server keeps 
> sending msg within specified `readTimeout`. It can be problematic if the 
> client wants to put a hard limit on the complete call time. I believe it's a 
> very common use case in a low latency system.
> *Proposed Solution*
>  Provide option to user to specify `callTimeout`/`requestTimeout`
