Description

Right now, https://play.rust-lang.org/?version=stable&mode=debug&edition=2018&gist=0c742b14419b5ebe0396bcbd1d72c886 gives me

/playground/tools/entrypoint.sh: line 11:     7 Killed                  timeout --signal=KILL ${timeout} "$@"

when I try to run it.

I tried again just now and it works again. Maybe the server was overloaded or something?

Research direction

Reproduce the provided Playground link and inspect /playground/tools/entrypoint.sh around line 11, including the timeout invocation. Done means establishing whether the SIGKILL comes from the submitted program, timeout or resource handling, or transient server load, with a repeatable test or clear operational finding.
