[mapserver-users] Limiting the execution time of mapserver

I have a WFS service running with a large layer in it (nationwide) on
mapserver. The interface that consumes it exposes a text search option where
users can search on the layer, using the PropertyIsLike filter. If someone
searches for something very broad, like "smith" postgres and mapserver go a
bit insane. First postgres does the large query, and returns the response
after a few minutes to mapserver, which proceeds to balloon to 85% of the
memory (the machine has 7 gigs).  Is there any way to stop mapserver from
completing any queries that last more than X seconds?

Thanks a lot!
