Re: Curl timeout option in milliseconds

Hi Daniel,

I am using the curl version 7.66.
The problem we are facing is like this.

1. Setting the CURLOPT_TIMEOUT_MS to 1001... The timeout happens exactly
after 1001 milliseconds.
2. Setting the CURLOPT_TIMEOUT_MS to 1000... The timeout happens exactly
after 1000 milliseconds.
3. Setting the CURLOPT_TIMEOUT_MS to 1512... The timeout happens exactly
after 1512 milliseconds.
4. Setting the CURLOPT_TIMEOUT_MS to any value < 1000 (say 200)... The
timeout happens exactly after 1000 milliseconds only.
