Timed out, now what?

Hi all!

I've been a libcurl user from more than a year now, and suddenly I realized
I don't know the answer to a very simple question:

"Timed out, now what?"

Basically, I'm performing POST operations over https and I'm setting:

CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT 5
CURLOPT_TIMEOUT 15
CURLOPT_NOSIGNAL 1

As well as other parameters like url, post fields, write callback and output
buffer.

So, I'm optimizing my app and I'm wondering, if I need to do the entire
handle setup when I receive a timeout from curl_easy_perform. Can I use the
easy_handle right afterwards to retry? or do I need to initialize it over
again??

Best regards,
Miguel.
