Description:
MWHttpRequest currently sets CURLOPT_TIMEOUT ($this->curlOptions[CURLOPT_TIMEOUT] = $this->timeout;) but doesn't provide a way to set CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT_MS.
MWSearch as deployed in production has a 10 second timeout. Today we had an outage where lsearchd was up on servers but hung and apaches waited 10 seconds for the connection attempts to timeout. It would be better if search connection attempts timed out at 500-1000ms.
Version: 1.21.x
Severity: enhancement

CURLOPT_TIMEOUT
The maximum number of seconds to allow cURL functions to execute.
CURLOPT_TIMEOUT_MS
The maximum number of milliseconds to allow cURL functions to execute. If libcurl is built to use the standard system name resolver, that portion of the connect will still use full-second resolution for timeouts with a minimum timeout allowed of one second.
Added in cURL 7.16.2. Available since PHP 5.2.3.
We already support CURLOPT_TIMEOUT. This is about supporting CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT_MS, which is what my patch does.
