Title: Death by API

My SG API stuff has been experiencing paralyzing, critical failures for weeks. The UI for my account is unusable the first half of the day. The only thing which has mitigated it has been to bump the timeout up to 10 minutes for any REST request.

It's horrible, and SG has yet to admit there's a problem on their end, even though a trivial curl command demonstrates it.

Anyhow, if we don't distribute a version where the timeout is high, other API users could be dead in the water like I am.
