What is waitHint?

Reports the number of milliseconds the Windows service told the Service Control Manager to wait before assuming a pending start/stop/pause operation has hung. An admin troubleshooting a slow-starting service can compare elapsed time against this hint to judge whether it is still within its allowed grace period.
