Is your feature request related to a problem?

Timeout defaults to 5 seconds but isn't tested. This can lead to confusing cases where the stream ends during infrequent transmission despite the simulation continuing.

Describe the solution you'd like

Test that the kwarg performs as expected with a parameterized test.

• Change default value to 600 seconds

• warn if user passes in an overly optimistic timeout, like <=1 second

• find some way to notify user if a timeout error was the reason the client stopped (warning? wrapping TImeoutError in EOFError?)
