Currently Akka HTTP doesn't implement client-side request timeout checking itself as this functionality can be regarded
as a more general purpose streaming infrastructure feature.
However, akka-stream should soon provide such a feature.
It should be noted that Akka Streams provide various timeout functionality so any API that uses a streams can benefit
from the stream stages such as ``idleTimeout``, ``completionTimeout``, ``initialTimeout`` and even ``throttle``.
To learn more about these refer to their documentation in Akka Streams (and Scala Doc).
For more details about timeout support in Akka HTTP in general refer to :ref:`http-timeouts`.
