Pls check the documentation https://docs.gofiber.io/api/fiber

These 2 settings have nothing to do with the timeout in your handler.

The read timeout is the timeout that exists when the request is read and the write timeout is the timeout for writing the response. These settings are in the unittests of our package and or the underlying fasthttp framework. You are probably looking for a way to give your handler a timeout for execution, for that look at this https://docs.gofiber.io/api/middleware/timeout
