Timeout for TCP/SSL Collect

Is there any way to put a limit on the SSL::collect or TCP::collect actions? I can't seem to find a built in function to do this, and was curious if anyone had a good method to do this.

Both TCP::collect and SSL::collect have packet length parameter options. Can you elaborate on what you're trying to do? Are you trying to perform some function if no data is collected over some period of time? I'd be cautious in the use of an explicit timing function like after. It's definitely useful here, but can have some implications of CPU utilization.
