In working through the examples, I see that the concurrent-request-timeout appears to be extremely small -- at most, 50 seconds. So, for example, if you start up a couple of conversations, they will timeout very quickly. My question is, is there a technical reason for this? Obviously, the longer you allow, the more likely you will run into optimistic locking conflicts, but are there any other issues?
