I am consistently receiving the following timeout error when trying to run a backtest:
Share New Research 
Algorithm.Initialize() Error: Execution Security Error: Operation timed out - 0.25 minutes max.Is there a way to increase the timeout threshold?
I really like this platform, but more often than not I receive this error and it is making it hard to use.

Experiencing same behavior with this algo as well

Thanks Caleb we'll look into increasing it. That part of the code should take about 0.5s, its very strange its taking 15s. We're at higher than ever backtesting loads so it might just be some growing pains.

Thanks again Jared. Haven't got a timeout in a few days.

I think I got it figured out. In case anyone else is still stuck with this timeout, I'm pretty sure that I had used the Schedule.On() helper with a callback function that was much too large. Instead, I used a flag to trigger the function and that worked properly. It was failing before it gave me a deploy ID, so I couldn't send that to support. Thanks for the help anyway :)
if self.output.scheduleAnalysisFlag == False and self.output.warmupLeft <= self.output.analysisWarmup: if self.settings.analysisInterval == 'Monthly': self.Schedule.On(self.DateRules.MonthStart(), self.TimeRules.At(10,0), self.initializeScheduler) elif self.settings.analysisInterval == 'Weekly': self.Schedule.On(self.DateRules.WeekStart(), self.TimeRules.At(10,0), self.initializeScheduler) elif self.settings.analysisInterval == 'Daily': self.Schedule.On(self.DateRules.EveryDay(), self.TimeRules.At(10,0), self.initializeScheduler) self.output.scheduleAnalysisFlag = True # sets the runAnalysisFlag to true. def initializeScheduler(self): self.output.runAnalysisFlag = TrueCaleb Sandfort
