What steps will reproduce the bug?

If I comment out the requestTimeout (the second line), then I can download the large file that takes minutes (I simulate with Chromium's network throttle to 'Slow 3G').

If I have the requestTimeout enabled, then node.js aborts the download after (usually) 100 seconds (typically after 4 MB on 'Slow 3G').

const httpServer = require("http").createServer().listen(8080)
httpServer.requestTimeout = 16000
httpServer.on('request',function(client_req,client_res) {
	var file = require('fs').createReadStream('large.zip')
	file.on('open',function(){
		client_res.writeHead(200,{"Content-Type":"application/zip"})
		file.pipe(client_res)
	})
})

Also tested on a different browser with real slow connection.

How often does it reproduce? Is there a required condition?

Always without exception.

What is the expected behavior?

If I set httpServer.requestTimeout, it does not abort the download at all.

What do you see instead?

Download is aborted after (usually) 100 seconds.

requestTimeout -

Sets the timeout value in milliseconds for receiving the entire request from the client.

Do you perhaps want to set the socket timeout (req.setTimeout) instead if what you want to check is inactivity on the connection rather the total request timeout?

It seems it had been fixed in main branch.
