Should proxy have a request timeout longer than electric sql server?

[Axedyson]

Just to confirm what is written here: https://electric-sql.com/docs/guides/client-development#add-live-and-cursor-parameters

Set live=true to switch Electric into live mode. Make sure your request timeout is higher than the server timeout (which defaults to 20s)

I'm currently running electric sql behind a proxy, so what this paragraph is saying I should do in my context is to make sure that the proxy allows to hold requests for longer than 20 seconds before timing out such that the electric sql server can timeout itself and return a proper response?

Also can I configure this default timeout for electric sql? If yes how can I do that?
