I think he must have been using one of those 'special' computers that
have infinite CPU, infinite storage and infinite memory where everything
happens instantly :)

No. If you are connected directly to Tomcat, Tomcat won't timeout the

proxy settings. Either way, if the request does time out, the deployment
will still carry on and complete normally.
