I'm interested to know, what is the typical network socket timeout value, used in production today.

I'm currently using 30 seconds in our Java application, but would like to hear what other using, especially for Internet communications.

Thanks.

There is no common value, it heavily depends on the application (how many messages are sent per hour, the more messages being sent the lower your timeout can be) and the network used (longer timeout over the internet than over a local network).
