Re: https://github.com/infinispan/infinispan/pull/391/files#L2R2822 So, TransportType.distributedSyncTimeout default is inded 240.000ms which is 4 mins. This was changed as part of: https://github.com/infinispan/infinispan/commit/0b87cdb26bdf7f6ca4043801b... Do we really need such a high timeout for this? It has a knock on effect on any other timeouts that are relying on this, such as state transfer. Cheers, -- Galder Zamarreño Sr. Software Engineer Infinispan, JBoss Cache
