    You should almost never get a task out of ticks error - 30,000 ticks is a
    *lot*.  It's more likely that the verb running out of ticks is written
    incorrectly - i.e. it's getting into an infinite loop.  I'd check those
    verbs before I change some server options.
    If a verb isn't in an endless loop, but is still running out of ticks, add
    a $command_utils:suspend_if_needed(0); to the loop (Presumably any verb
    that could run out of ticks has a loop).  That will suspend it for 0
    seconds (Well, theoretically - Realistically a little more) and reset the
    tick count.
