Fixes #774
Description of the Change
On the server side, sockets now have a 1 minute read timeout. This gives plenty of time for heartbeats to come in and "reset" the timeout, while not allowing the server to hold onto stale connections forever.
Possible Drawbacks
I guess if the network is really haywire this could lead to forced disconnects.
Documentation Notes
Connections to servers automatically time out after one minute.
