Ruby/programming noob here.  I've just finished my first real app, but it's
performance is occassionally plagued by the following error message:

c:/ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/timeout.rb:54:in `rbuf_fill': execution expired
(Timeout::Error)
        from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/timeout.rb:56:in `timeout'
        from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/timeout.rb:76:in `timeout'
        from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/net/protocol.rb:132:in `rbuf_fill'
        from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/net/protocol.rb:116:in `readuntil'
        from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/net/protocol.rb:126:in `readline'
        from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/net/http.rb:2017:in `read_status_line'
        from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/net/http.rb:2006:in `read_new'
        from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/net/http.rb:1047:in `request'

I did find one proposed solution here (modifying the rbuf_fill method):
http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/105212 , but it doesn't seem to work for
me.  These posts also explains why standard error handling won't work.

Does anyone have another solution?

Thanks a bunch!
