Description

Hi, I have a configuration-related question. What is the difference between the configurations of http.socket.timeout and http.connectionrequest.timeout? What are the effects of configuring these settings? If I do not set them, will the default proxy requests not time out and wait indefinitely until a response arrives? It would be even better if you could explain with specific examples. Thank you very much!
