| Maximum time in seconds that you allow curl's connection to take. This only |
| limits the connection phase, so if curl connects within the given period it |
| will continue - if not it will exit. Since version 7.32.0, this option |
| accepts decimal values. |
| |
| If this option is used several times, the last one will be used. |
