--- Comment #9 from Nicolas Dufresne (stormer) <nicolas.dufresne at collabora.co.uk> ---
It's a good question. I don't have a test to actually reproduce the issue, I
only have an good understanding of why it will constantly stop working from
reading the code. The design of the timeout is flawed to start with, but I
would probably not say beyond repair. I think the patch should improve the
situation slightly, but more testing is required.

My general impression is that in the long term we should entirely deprecate
these read/write method and implement proper async() GIO methods. GTask solves
a lot of the issues we are facing now and would greatly improve scalability.
Right now the code is doing very little multiplexing, and won't scale with a
large group of connections.
