Right, I never expected that a report request would hang indefinitely. The documentation for the Report DefinitionService (http:// code.google.com/apis/adwords/docs/guides/reporting.html#downloading) states that "The request times out after three minutes". I am looking for a similar value for adHoc reporting.
Basically, I need to know how much more work I need to do to upgrade my applications from v13 to v201109. Do I need to make the application smart enough to know that if it gets a certian type of error it should try again filtering by campaigns (i.e. pull smaller reports)? Or is the limit so far from how long it is currently taking for my reports that I don't need to worry about it? For example, right now I pull a report that takes ~90 seconds to return the first byte of the report. If it is a three minute timeout, then I don't need to do anything. If it is a 100 second timeout then I should look into makeing the app smart enough to pull multiple small reports and join them together. Does that make sense?
