Description

In ipc.Client.setupIOStreams, the connect timeout is hard-coded to 20 seconds

// connection time out is 20s
this.socket.connect(remoteId.getAddress(), 20000);

This could be made configurable for deployments where a longer connect time is desired, or where a shorter connect time would detect failure faster.
