I'm using libevent to handle incoming requests, but I need to fire off a backend http request to an internal service (basically a multi-tier app). I need a sub-second timeout on this, so I patched libevent to make this possible. I preserved the existing interface ( evhttp_connection_set_timeout) and added a new one: evhttp_connection_set_timeout_in_ms.
Seems useful, might be worth adding to the core library. Attached patch is against 1.4.6. Brian
