gollark: Good to know. I seem to have mostly fixed the potatOS compatibility issues, so it should work sensibly now.
gollark: 2.2.6, it's the version the AUR has.
gollark: It seems like two potatOS things trigger timeouts when they don't in CCEmuX: CRCing the potatOS source code, and some font library. I'll try turning it up to 2000ms then.
gollark: Is it "abortTimeout"? If so, what unit is that?
gollark: Also, how do you control how long it takes to error "too long without yielding"?
