it will be stopped as soon as possible. There's no way to make by default a scheduler "timeout-less" just cause it's a very bad idea (a job-processor with no timeouts "impersonate" the "bad-design" it tries to defeat in the first place)
If you need to run processes that may never stop, rely on your system's cron. BTW, this doesn't stop you to set timeout=999999: if your job doesn't stop in 11 days since you started, it's probably an unuseful job. tl;dr: it's a bad choice, but you need to make it explicitely.
