Hi,

It doesn't appear there is a connection timeout parameter (e.g.,
ConnString="...;Timeout=5;..."), so I'm not sure how to throw an error
quicker if the driver cannot connect to the host:port. I'm waiting about 18
seconds, which I'd like to reduce to 5 seconds to streamline my program
startup if the postgres server is not available. Did I read the
documentation incorrectly, or are there any plans to introduce a Timeout
parameter? I'm using the latest version (08.04.0200).

There was a similar unanswered question a while ago:
