98 * the mean and mean deviation of RTT for the appropriate type of RPC
99 * for frequently issued RPCs, and a fixed default for the others.
101 * The justification for doing "other" this way is that these RPCs
102 * happen so infrequently that timer estimation would probably be
103 * stale. Also, since many of these RPCs are non-idempotent, a
104 * conservative timeout is desired.
