| Maximum time in seconds that you allow the whole operation to take. This is |
| useful for preventing your batch jobs from hanging for hours due to slow |
| networks or links going down. Since 7.32.0, this option accepts decimal |
| values, but the actual timeout will decrease in accuracy as the specified |
| timeout increases in decimal precision. |
| |
| If this option is used several times, the last one will be used. |
