As mentioned above, a node protects a netlet from unreliable external code by throwing a TimeoutException if that external node takes too long. This is all part of the job of the mediator.
We won't go into details here. Suffice it to say that the timeout can be changed. At the time of writing the default is 30 seconds. This is part of the interface IAsynchronous.IClient which we cover next, albeit for other reasons.
