Timeouts of less than 2 seconds are unsafe due to the lack of subsecond resolution in most POSIX filesystems. This is the trade-off for using a low-complexity solution for timeouts. Since this type of timeout is a last resort; 2 seconds is not entirely unreasonable IMNSHO. Additionally, timing out too aggressively can put us in a fork loop and slow down the system. Of course, the default is 60 seconds and most people do not bother to change it.
