in reply to Running out of time?

To have perl running out of time, you have to mask it's builtin limit. The builtin limit is eternity. See alarm.

--shmem

_($_=" "x(1<<5)."?\n".q·/)Oo.  G°\        /
                              /\_¯/(q    /
----------------------------  \__(m.====·.(_("always off the crowd"))."·
");sub _{s./.($e="'Itrs `mnsgdq Gdbj O`qkdq")=~y/"-y/#-z/;$e.e && print}

    Well actually we don't really know what the limit is because it's an undecidable problem :)

      The policemen said "Halt!", and Turing answered "I don't know".
