Hello Pradeep, Let me try to help you, I faced a similar issue, too.
Thing is I was told selecting all the records at once is not an ideal approach. No matter how strong the hardware is an arbitrary upward adjusted RPC time out would not help, whatever value you give to it, the ‘SELECT *’ query would die. I ended up creating a program that implements paging, I had my CQL LIMIT <value> set to a relatively reasonable [small] number and was able to suck ~500K reocrds out.
