The timeout Statement

Syntax
timeout <value> {
    [ statements ]
}
Description

The timeout statement limits the total time which a section can use to process a particular request. If the request takes more than the given time, it returns fail.

The <value> text can be a number, or a dynamic expansion, or an attribute reference. The contents of <value> are interpreted as a time_delta, with default scale in seconds.

The time scale can be changed by appending s, us, ms, ns, etc. as with all uses of time_delta values.

Example
timeout 1ms {
    foo
    bar
}

In general, the best way to use timeout is in conjunction with a redundant block. In the following example, the configuration allows the proxy module to run for 4 seconds. If the proxy module takes more than 4 seconds to return, or if the proxy module fails, the detail module is called.

Example using redundant
redundant
    timeout 4s {
        proxy
    }

    detail
}
