Execution Time Limit

To aid environments that have to be sandboxed, Pluto provides Execution Time Limit (ETL), which can be enabled by defining PLUTO_ETL_ENABLE in luaconf.h or your build config.

By default, ETL allows code to run for a total of 1 ms (1.000.000 nanos). This can be changed by overwriting PLUTO_ETL_NANOS.

Note that this is a hammer solution. If you only want to prevent stupid mistakes, Infinite Loop Prevention is a far better tool.
