Connection Timeout with timeout = 0

I have a series of test scripts where the only error that I am getting
is a ConnectException Connection Timed Out error every so often. I want
to find out how long the worst of these calls take, so I do not want to
see a connection timeout, but have that connection finish whatever it
was doing and record how long it took.

In order to remove the timeout, I have gone through the documentation
and found the entry in jmeter.properties and set

http.timeout=0
httpclient.parameters.file=http.parameters

and added an entry in http.parameters to

http.connection.timeout$Integer=0

This should have taken care of the possibility for timeouts in my test,
but I still see a number of them. Is there anything I am missing? The
calls that are timing out are SOAP/XML-RPC calls. Thank you for your
help.
