But time limits are inconsistent. Whether a template
hits the limit
might depend on whether it happens to be running on an Apache with a
Pentium IV, an Opteron, a Xeon, . . .
And they might depend on the server load at the time, which is
especially problematic if the script produces page rendering output,
which gets cached. A temporary server overload might cause caching of
broken pages (which render fine otherwise). Some invariant measure
(like instruction count etc.) would be great (and much more
complicated, unless we would use our own interpreter of the respective
scripting language).
