Graceful Shutdown Recipe

Echo now ships with graceful server termination inside it, to accomplish it Echo uses github.com/tylerb/graceful library.

By Default echo uses 15 seconds as shutdown timeout, giving 15 secs to open connections at the time the server starts to shut-down.

In order to change this default 15 seconds you could change the ShutdownTimeout property of your Echo instance as needed by doing something like:

server.go
