These methods are prone to read timeouts. `Docker.options[:read_timeout]` will need to be made higher than 60 seconds if expecting a long time between events.
These methods are prone to read timeouts. The timeout can be disabled by setting it to zero, or simply made much higher:

```ruby
# Disable timeouts completely
Docker::Event.stream({ read_timeout: 0 }) { |event| … }

# Timeout if no events are received in 24h
Docker::Event.stream({ read_timeout: 60 * 60 * 24) }) { |event| … }

# Set a high timeout globally. Be warned that you probably don't want this for other methods.
Docker.options[:read_timeout] = 60 * 60 * 24
Docker::Event.stream { |event| … }
```
