Does anyone know how to configure default timeouts on the ktor-client when using OkHttp as an engine?

E.g.

HttpClient(OkHttp) {
                expectSuccess = false
            }.config {
                // These value exists in the java builder of OkHttp but I don't know how to configure them through the engine {} or config {} ktor api
                callTimeout = 0
                connectTimeout = 0
                readTimeout = 0
                writeTimeout = 0
                pingInterval = 0
            }

I'm guessing I should use this:

val client = HttpClient() {
    install(HttpTimeout) {
        // timeout config
        requestTimeoutMillis = 1000
    }
}

Looking back at it it was maybe a stupid question... I was used to the apache engine where you configured it in the engine

the requestTimeoutMillis is also broader than the engine-level timeouts, it’s implemented with https://kotlin.github.io/kotlinx.coroutines/kotlinx-coroutines-core/kotlinx.coroutines/with-timeout.html (I believe) so it covers all steps of request-processing. For example if DNS resolving is slow is not covered by connectTimeout

but what happens to the resources of requests that are “abandoned” by configuring requestTimeoutMillis I do not know. I hope they are cleaned up immediately
