 Replying to [comment:13 mestovar]:
 > Since php 5.2.3 you can pass the timeout to curl as miliseconds

 The [http://php.net/manual/en/function.curl-setopt.php documentation]
 comes with this caveat:

 > If libcurl is built to use the standard system name resolver, that
 portion of the connect will still use full-second resolution for timeouts
 with a minimum timeout allowed of one second.
