I'd set the default to zero. I beleive that's what Heiko suggested too.
Oh, yes, you are right. I missed to catch the suggestion.
I'll post fixed version soon. Wait a minutes...
Thanks,

I really don't like this, it means the system is really screwed up and

It can be said that after timeout we just back to previous state, where
machine already limp(=partially screwed up), but have some degree of
performance. We might be able
stopmachine_timeout from secs to msecs, and set default to
200 msec (since v1's arbitrary 5 sec is too long)
