[OpenAFS-devel] rx_SetConnDeadTime

[Neulinger, Nathan]

I noticed that AFS_RXDEADTIME is set to 50 in afs.h, and used in a couple of
rx_SetConnDeadTime calls. There are a few other calls to that routine that
have 50 wired. Would changing those to AFS_RXDEADTIME be appropriate?

Reason I ask is, was wanting to test what would happen adjusting these
params, and figured easier to edit all in one place.

>From the looks of things, it seems like lowering this parameter might give
better recovery times for read-only volume timeouts. Instead of 50 seconds,
maybe 10-15 or so. Not sure what the difference is between DEADTIME and
HARDDEADTIME though.
