             Summary: Provide config parameter for timing out 
longrunning/inefficient queries
                 Key: OAK-2617
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OAK-2617
             Project: Jackrabbit Oak
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: mongomk
    Affects Versions: 1.0.12
            Reporter: Stefan Egli
             Fix For: 1.0.13


There have been cases where mongo queries where running for a very long time 
due to inefficient use of indexes or wrong indexes - mostly due to resulting 
traversals of loads of child nodes.

While a proper fix for this is likely to be found in properly hinting at the 
right index (or by not hinting at all and letting mongo decide) - it might 
nevertheless be a good fallback plan to let queries not run for an infinite 
amount of time in case 'something went wrong/inefficient'.

For that, mongo provides a timeout for queries, see 
[here|http://mongodb.github.io/node-mongodb-native/driver-articles/anintroductionto1_4_and_2_6.html#maxtimems].

The suggestion is to make use of this by providing a system property that would 
set this.

I'll come up with a patch for this.
