In another ticket, that is.

alert appears every time I try to interrupt the calculation, but the
calculation keeps going (e.g., according to `top`). (I stopped after
about 10 attempts.) Restarting the worksheet does stop the calculation.
But this need not hold up this ticket, as I can interrupt other examples,
such as `import time; time.sleep(10)` and `factor(factorial(100000000))`.

that doesn't work, please try restarting the worksheet."?
Will do so.
