I'd suggest you just set the breakpoint after the connection has been
established. There is a 3 second timeout in the handshake with the
broker. This timeout is not exposed via configuration thus you'd need to
recompile the broker if you wished to change it. You'd need to change
the NORMAL_TIMEOUT and possible the HANDSHAKE_TIMEOUT too at the top of
rabbit_reader.erl.
