Description

Increases the default timeout for Servarr API requests from 5000ms to 10000ms. Users were frequently hitting timeout errors on endpoints like /rootfolder that perform disk I/O, particularly when Radarr/Sonarr is under load or querying network-mounted storage. The previous 5s default was too aggressive for these scenarios. Since responses from these endpoints are cached, the longer timeout has negligible impact on user experience.

How Has This Been Tested?

Where timeouts tick in ancient calls,
From five to ten—more time to play,
The API waits a longer day! ⏰
