There are already two bounds hardcoded. How is using a constant in the interval “worse” than that?
Okay, one constant is in case the computation fails. Not a bound. The other is just a minimum -- a human interface sort of thing. It may well be that 1 second is sufficient on a given platform, but I would not expect a human being to become impatient before 5 seconds have elapsed. The value needs to indicate that at that amount of time there is highly likely some problem, and it ought not be so long that folks get impatient. I do not expect impatience in less than 5 seconds. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
