Increasing concurrentRequestTimeout

[pdpantages]

Hello Forum,

seam 1.1.0.GA
jboss-4.0.5.GA
ajax4jsf-1.0.5
Facelets

I have a question about the parameter

org.jboss.seam.core.manager.concurrentRequestTimeout

Specifically, are there any limits to the value?
I see from ..seam.core.Manager.java that the default is 1 second
I know it must remain shorter than the conversationTimeout.

Fyi, I was getting
"The conversation ended, timed out or was processinganother request"
when my ajax poller fired while a lengthy operation was in progress.

Bumping up the concurrentRequestTimeout (I tried 5s) made it work again.

I want to know if there is any downside to a larger value.

Thanks, PdP

Not really, only that a thread will be tied up doing nothing on the server for that length of time.
