While testing on my servers, I observed that the timeout value appears to be doubled. For instance, if I set the timeout to 10 seconds, the "Timer expired" message occurs after 20 seconds. Is this an expected behavior, or is the doubling unavoidable? I'm okay with it as long as we have a functioning timeout. However, I recommend documenting this behavior to avoid any potential confusion for users. -- Regards Yafang
