Could someone outline the drawbacks(if any) of increasing the number of seconds

Could someone outline the drawbacks(if any) of increasing the number of seconds to wait for a response from a webservice? Currently the below property is commented out in our custom.properties file (that means by default wait time is 60 seconds)
#conf.node.webservice.socket.timeout=@conf.node.webservice.socket.timeout@

We need to increase this to 3 minutes as some of our SSRS services taking around 67 seconds or even more for a few requests in our Production system.

This means you'll have one thread busy for 3 minutes. I think that's too much. If you have multiple calls of this type at the same time it could cause resource contention.

That said is not a best practice to increase this value but to optimize the web service is possible.
