Automatically killing long running jobs


Hi Everyone,

I'm looking for a solution to my problem of long running reports. Everyone
once in a while a user gets carried away and submits a very, very large
report to the system. What I would like to do is kill any reports that run
for more than X minutes. These reports run in our reporting
queue/subsystem, so it would be safe to kill any job in that subsystem
that's been running for more that X minutes.

Any ideas on how best to accomplish this? Or am I off the mark in trying
this?
