implement read timeout, if server sends nothing for 1 min, connection drops

It's necessary if using upstream SOCKS5 proxy.

 # Async MTProto Proxy #
 
-Fast and simple to setup mtproto proxy.
+Fast and simple to setup MTProto proxy written in Python.
 
 ## Starting Up ##
     
 1. `git clone -b stable https://github.com/alexbers/mtprotoproxy.git; cd mtprotoproxy`
 2. *(optional, recommended)* edit *config.py*, set **PORT**, **USERS** and **AD_TAG**
-3. `docker-compose up --build -d` (or just `python3 mtprotoproxy.py` if you don't like docker)
-4. *(optional, shows telegram link to set the proxy)* `docker-compose logs`
+3. `docker-compose up -d` (or just `python3 mtprotoproxy.py` if you don't like Docker)
+4. *(optional, get a link to share the proxy)* `docker-compose logs`
+

 ## Channel Advertising ##
 
-To advertise a channel get a tag from **@MTProxybot** and write it to *config.py*.

 ## Performance ##
 
 The proxy performance should be enough to comfortably serve about 4 000 simultaneous users on
-the smallest VDS instance with 1 CPU core and 1024MB RAM.

+## More Instructions ##
+
+- [Running without Docker](https://github.com/alexbers/mtprotoproxy/wiki/Running-Without-Docker)
+- [Optimization and fine tuning](https://github.com/alexbers/mtprotoproxy/wiki/Optimization-and-Fine-Tuning)
+
+## Advanced Usage ##
+
+The proxy can be launched:
+- with a custom config: `python3 mtprotoproxy.py [configfile]`
+- several times, clients will be automaticaly balanced between instances
+- with uvloop module to get an extra speed boost
+- with runtime statistics exported to [Prometheus](https://prometheus.io/)
