Because we want it to work with free environments and if we can do that
with an easy fix like this that doesn't really impact other runtime
environments why wouldn't we. Besides this is not easy to fix in an
interpreter like sablevm since it just isn't fast enough to complete the
task in such little time. I think it would even be a good idea to make
the timeout really large to be sure that it really completes since if it
doesn't there is clearly something wrong with that Plugin.
