Goldstein Lyor commented on SSHD-651:
-------------------------------------

Implementing this for NIO2 is not too difficult. However, there are a few 
questions to be resolved:

* What would be a reasonable default for the read/write timeouts ?

This question is especially crucial for read timeout where the SSH session may 
be very quiet,

* Should we use the _FactoryManager#DEFAULT_IDLE_TIMEOUT_  (default=10min.) ? 

In this context what you describe seems very strange in view of the SSH session 
idle timeout mechanism which closes inactive sessions. So the "dangling" 
connections you mention seem very strange - I would strongly recommended 
opening up the DEBUG log level (at lease for the _AbstractSession_) and seeing 
what happens in this regard.

* For write timeouts - shouldn't the timeout be proportional to the amount of 
data being written ?

If so, what would be a good formula to calculate it...

* The above only holds for NIO2 - what if the user is using MINA sessions ?

The behavior of the code would change from the user's perspective - do you 
suggest we implement a timeout thread mechanism for MINA sessions that enforces 
the same read/write behavior as NIO2 - possible, but not tririval piece of 
code...

* Have you made sure that the "dangling" connections you mention are not 
related to DIRMINA-1021 (a.k.a. SSHD-595) ?

Bottom line - we need a clearer definition of this feature's behavior before 
implementing it.

> Currently, as I see from Nio2Acceptor and Nio2Session code we call socket 
> async read/write without specifying ant timeouts. This may mean that for some 
> cases this read/write may stuck eternally. 
> Currently I see such dangling connections on my application. 
> It could be nice if we were ably to pass some fixed timeout for low-level 
> socket operations.
