Are seconds an appropriate scale factor for the timeout?

The patch didn't introduce changes in this regard -- TFTP timeouts were defined in seconds originally. The patch makes the timeout behavior configurable, instead of being hardcoded, but the units remain the same:
But the argument was a perfectly valid one. I am, too, concerned that second resolution is not optimal any more (it was as long as we needed just one timeout long enough, but this situation will be changed by your other patches).
So please extend that patch to change this into milliseconds as discussed before.
OK, v2 of the patches will implement milisecond granularity for initial TFTP server timeout.
