Package: haskell-dav Version: 0.4.1 Severity: normal http-conduit has a timeout of either 5 seconds or 5 minutes, after which it terminates any ongoing http request, throwing a ResponseTimeout HttpException.
It's a very annoying that this applies to DAV, which is often used to download or upload large files. For example, see: http://git-annex.branchable.com/bugs/box.com_never_stops_syncing./ I would like to see DAV fixed to either disable this timeout, or allow configuring it to some very large value. Based on https://github.com/snoyberg/http-conduit/issues/137, there are actually multiple timeouts in http-conduit, a 5 second timeout if the connection stalls w/o data being received, and a 5 minute timeout on the whole http connection. I have not been able to find this 5 minute timeout in the code, however, only the 5 second one in responseTimeout. -- see shy jo
