General SDK: SDK never gets ready, regardless of the ready timeout value

Issue

The SDK never gets ready, regardless of how much the ready timeout value.

There are several possible root causes for this issue:

If the SDK used is a server side type (Python, Ruby, GO, PHP, Node.js or Java), and the API key used is Client-side type. The Harness FME servers service is expecting a specific call for Segment information which is different for Client-side vs Server-side API keys.
Verify if there are large Segments in Split environment. Segments that contain tens of thousands of records will require a long time to be downloaded to the SDK cache.
Verify network connection to sdk.split.io is fast. Use the command below to verify:

curl sdk.split.io -s -o /dev/null -w  "%{time_starttransfer}\n"

The command will return the time it took the GET command to get a response.
