<p>This directive can set various timeouts for receiving the request headers
and the request body from the client. If the client fails to send headers or
body within the configured time, a <code>408 REQUEST TIME OUT</code> error
is sent.</p>
<p>For SSL virtual hosts, the header timeout values include the time needed
to do the initial SSL handshake. The body timeout values include the time
needed for SSL renegotiation (if necessary).</p>
<p>When an <code class="directive"><a href="/mod/core.html#acceptfilter">AcceptFilter</a></code> is in use
(usually the case on Linux and FreeBSD), the socket is not sent to the
server process before at least one byte (or the whole request for
<code>httpready</code>) is received. The header timeout configured with
<code>RequestTimeout</code> is only effective after the server process has
received the socket.</p>
<p>For the timeout parameters, the value 0 means no limit.</p>
<dl>
<dt><code>headerinit</code></dt>
<dd>The initial timeout for receiving the request headers in seconds.
Also the timout for receiving the first byte of the request. If
<code>headerminrate</code> is not set, the request line and all headers
must be received within this time.</dd>
<dt><code>headerminrate</code></dt>
<dd>The minimum data rate for receiving the request headers in
bytes/second. Whenever data is received, the timeout is increased
according to this data rate.</dd>
<dt><code>headermax</code></dt>
<dd>The maximum timeout for receiving the request headers in seconds.
The timeout cannot be increased above this value by
<code>headerminrate</code>.</dd>
<dt><code>bodyinit</code></dt>
<dd>The initial timeout for receiving the request body in seconds.
Also the timout for receiving the first byte of the request body. If
<code>bodyminrate</code> is not set, the complete request body must be
received within this time.</dd>
<dt><code>bodyminrate</code></dt>
<dd>The minimum data rate for receiving the request body in
bytes/second. Whenever data is received, the timeout is increased
according to this data rate.</dd>
<dt><code>bodymax</code></dt>
<dd>The maximum timeout for receiving the request body in seconds.
The timeout cannot be increased above this value by
<code>bodyminrate</code></dd>
