The command to send a CPU time limit exceeded signal to a process. The system should send this when some process is eating CPU cycles, but AFAIK it needs some weird configuration option. This would be really usefull on time-sharing systems or huge multi-user systems, not so much on a desktop box.

If you read this literally, it means "kill the process, and toast the CPU while you're at it". About as useful as the HCF instruction.
