The original code used `Thread.sleep(1000)` to wait for the write-thread to block. However, 1 second isn't always long enough and if the write-thread isn't blocked and the output buffer is full (or almost full), the `socket.close()` call may block when it tries to send the close_notify alert. This is the condition that caused this bug.

LGTM.
Some OSes spontaneously increase the buffer size after a few seconds, unblocking blocked write operations. We also use 10 seconds limit in networking tests, seems to work pretty well.
