--- Comment #1 from David Smith <dsmith at redhat dot com> ---
After a conversation with Frank Eigler, we're not sure there is much we can do
here. The probes are runing long because someone needed them to run long. If we
limit the runtime, then that just means that we block some types of probes
entirely. So, we'll continue to let them run, and perhaps skipping some.

I'll try to document this.
