I'm not a coder, thus I will wait until someone else improves it. :-)
Anyway, regardles off what option will be implemented, I think it would
be good to make the retransmission paramters configureable, e.g:
- query-timeout (currently 15 seconds)
- query-retransmissions (number of retransmissions with same
transaction id, currently 2)
- query-attempts (number of transactions, currently 4)
Thanks
Klaus
