I'm trying to get the new socket.settimeout() in Python 2.3a1 to work in
conjunction with httplib and SSL. This code seems to work fine:
import httplib
conn = httplib.HTTPConnection('ncsdevtest.nameconnector.com', 80)
conn.connect()
conn.sock.settimeout(90)
conn.request('GET', '/cgi-bin/Pause30.cgi')
response = conn.getresponse()
print response.status, response.reason
data = response.read()
print 'read', len(data), 'bytes'
conn.close()
Where Pause30.cgi is a cgi script that simply sleeps for 30 seconds then
sends back a simple response.
As-is, this program returns after 30 seconds. If I adjust the timeout of 90
to be, lets say, 5 seconds, I correctly get a timeout exception after 5
seconds. So far, so good.
But if I change HTTPConnection to HTTPSConnection and change 80 to 443, I
have trouble -- my CPU usage goes up to 100%, the python process sucks up
more and more memory, and it doesn't time out at all. It does still returns
the correct response after 30 seconds.
Is there a way to do this? Should I enter a bug report?
