Database Timeout Settings - system.db.runQuery() via gateway scope

I'm noticing that timeouts occur sometimes with

system.db.runQuery(myQuery)

It looks like under Project Properties - Vision - there is a read timeout setting that might work for increasing the timeout setting above one minute. Would this setting also work for a gateway-scoped script that uses system.db.runQuery()

One more thing I'm also noticing - it looks like system.db.runUpdateQuery() doesn't have a timeout setting, or if it does have a timeout - it's many hours.

Basically I'm just looking for a way to increase the timeout with system.db.runQuery() for a gateway scoped script! Thanks!

Designer/Vision timeouts do not apply to DB queries that are entirely in gateway scope. The DB query will run and run and run. (Limited only by the DB connection settings.)
