+`Echo#StartServer()` can be used to run a custom `http.Server`.

+
+```go

+## Read Timeout
+
+`Echo#ReadTimeout` can be used to set the maximum duration before timing out read
+of the request.
+
+## Write Timeout
+
+`Echo#WriteTimeout` can be used to set the maximum duration before timing out write
+of the response.
+
+## Shutdown Timeout
+
+`Echo#ShutdownTimeout` can be used to set the maximum duration to wait until killing
+active requests and stopping the server. If timeout is 0, the server never times
+out. It waits for all active requests to finish.
