Add timeout to composite calcs
Issue #197
on hold
It is currently possible for a composite calculation to run forever and effectively cause a denial of service attack type situation.
While this is unlikely to happen in practice it would be a good idea to add a timeout to composite calcs either using a separate thread or signals.
