#
# Only change this to FALSE if your backend can not be SIGKILLed without
# database corruption.
#
# Even if this is set TRUE, the backend can still enforce this FALSE if it it

# Use strict developer checking in the daemon
#
# This should be set to TRUE if the backend should be run in strict compliance
# mode, which is useful when developing a backend. Normal sane users should not

# How long the transaction is valid before it's destroyed, in seconds
#
# The client only has a finite amount of time to use the object, else it is
# destroyed. Setting this longer will allow malicious clients to queue up large
# number of authentication requests, but setting this shorter will reduce the
# amount of time the user has to authenticate.

# default=30
TransactionCreateCommitTimeout=30

# How long the transaction should be queriable after it is finished, in seconds
#
# Give the client a few seconds to still query the transaction after it has
# finished by keeping it on the bus. Setting this larger allows clients to query
# the transaction without accessing the database, but increases memory usage.
