No, what I mean is this:
BEGIN;
select * from foo;
update bar;
delete baz;
Each one of those is subject to statement_timeout, yes? If so, then I
don't see a point for transaction timeout. You set statement_timeout for
what works for your environment. Once the timeout is reached within the
statement (within the transaction), the transaction is going to rollback
too.
