It’s been a long time since I did this in Rust. But why do you not have access to the sockets or at least a set_timeout method? Is it a higher level lib that omits such crucial features?
In Go, the super common net.Conn interface has deadline methods. Not everyone knows their importance but generally you have something like it piped through to the higher layers.
