Indeed. By overriding that method 
(http://www.rabbitmq.com/releases/rabbitmq-java-client/v1.8.1/rabbitmq-java-client-javadoc-1.8.1/com/rabbitmq/client/ConnectionFactory.html#configureSocket%28java.net.Socket%29) 
one gets full control over configuring the socket - not just for setting 
timeouts, but also configuring buffer sizes, disabling nagle, etc.
