Description:
 def clone(self):
 """ Create a copy of the timeout object Timeout properties are stored per-pool but each request needs a fresh Timeout object to ensure each one has its own start/stop configured. :return: a copy of the timeout object :rtype: :class:`Timeout` """

        # We can't use copy.deepcopy because that will also create a new object
        # for _GLOBAL_DEFAULT_TIMEOUT, which socket.py uses as a sentinel to
        # detect the user default.
        return Timeout(connect=self._connect, read=self._read,
