Puppet

There’s an agent setting ‘configtimeout’ which purports to:

:configtimeout => {
  :default  => 120,
  :desc     => "How long the client should wait for the configuration to be retrieved
  before considering it a failure.  This can help reduce flapping if too
  many clients contact the server at one time.",
},

This is not correct though, as it’s actually used for all http connections. The option should be renamed to reflect reality (perhaps to httptimeout?) and docs updated accordingly.
