I am occasionally getting this standard timeout exception using
httpclient. The problem is that I have set the connection timeout to 60
seconds setConnectionTimeout(60000) and this is occurring after between
2 and 3 seconds (using 2.0 alpha 3). Any guesses as to what is
happening, or am I missing something.
