Interesting technote on maximum execution time of LotusScript agents

I was quite surprised the read the snippet from the cited technote below but after thinking about it, it makes sense. How would the AMgr know beforehand how long time the agent would run and hence how to keep the Terminate event inside the maximum execution time...

"By design, the Terminate event will execute after an agent has been halted for passing the time-out setting. The best coding practice would be to have only necessary clean-up operations within the Termination event. The main operations of the agent should reside in the Initialize event."

Via the Lotus Support RSS feed: Terminate Event of a LotusScript Agent continues running after the Max Execution time (technote 1201324)
