The time allocated by the system for expiration handlers doesn’t vary with the number of background tasks. All expiration handlers must complete before the allocated time.
Not setting an expiration handler results in the system marking your task as complete and unsuccessful instead of sending a warning.
The manager sets the value expirationHandler to nil after the handler completes.
