connect_timeout not firing an error

[tmpfs]

I have set connect_timeout() and would expect the future to Err once the timeout expires but I am seeing my program hang indefinitely.

I can reproduce it with any unreachable IP on my LAN:

use std::time::Duration;

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
    let client = reqwest::ClientBuilder::new()
        .connect_timeout(Duration::from_millis(1000))
        .build().unwrap();
    // Unreachable IP address
    client.get("http://192.168.1.8:5053").send().await.unwrap();
}

Am I missing something or do you think this is a bug?

Using reqwest@v0.11.25.

Could be a bug, could be something more happening on your system. Hard to know, since the option does work for many people. Are you able to dig into what may be different?
