+Connection timeout to the OCSP responder in seconds.
+On POSIX systems, when running as an OCSP responder, this option also limits
+the time that the responder is willing to wait for the client request.
+This time is measured from the time the responder accepts the connection until
+the complete request is received.

+Run the specified number of OCSP responder child processes, with the parent
+process respawning child processes as needed.
+Child processes will detect changes in the CA index file and automatically
+reload it.
+When running as a responder B<-timeout> option is recommended to limit the time
+each child is willing to wait for the client's OCSP response.
+This option is available on POSIX systems (that support the fork() and other
+required unix system-calls).
