Subject: Flaw in ezca timeouts

Would somebody care to comment on the following:

I wanted a timeout of 5 seconds in an ezca program, therefore I set
ezcaSetTimeout(5.0) and ezcaSetRetryCount(0).  As a result of this
all successful puts and gets took AT LEAST 5 seconds, regardless of
how long the actual ca operation took.

This seems to be due to the exclusive use of ca_pend_event within ezca
rather than ca_pend_io - was there a compelling reason to prefer
ca_pend_event in this way?
