My code that used to run in 8 hours has now been running for over 10 hours without results. It's probably because the same machine is running several people's code simultaneously. But is this 12-hour time limit really reasonable? It's easily affected by the machine's load, which isn't something we can control.

I've run 7 submissions over the past two days without a single result. The longest one took 18 hours. I set up my submission to stop processing and return default values if it exceeds 11 hours and 55 minutes. Even with that precaution, some runs still went over 14 hours. The experience has been terrible, and the official platform hasn't given any explanation. @ryanholbrook
