Increase the Policy Manager timeout limits

• Add larger timeouts, try doubling (default is 30000ms and 60000ms, 30s and 60s respectively) -Dcom.l7tech.gateway.remoting.connectionTimeout=60000 -Dcom.l7tech.gateway.remoting.readTimeout=120000
• For example: commandline=javaw -Dcom.l7tech.gateway.remoting.connectionTimeout=60000 -Dcom.l7tech.gateway.remoting.readTimeout=120000 -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -Duser.language=en -Duser.country=US -Xms128M -Xmx1024M -Xss256k -Dsun.net.inetaddr.ttl=10 -Dnetworkaddress.cache.ttl=10 -jar Manager.jar
