Try adding to search timelimit argument timelimit => N
A timelimit that restricts the maximum time (in seconds) allowed for a search. A value of 0 (the default), means that no timelimit will be requested.
I added timelimit argument in the search method but it still is taking 13 minutes to comeback with no entries. I thought that the argument name may be different so tried timeout => 10 and seconds => 10. All these did not work.
