 Description   

The periodic runner doesn't handle thrown errors gracefully. At the moment, if any single run of a job throws, it will cause an fassert. We should make the runner more resilient to thrown errors within its jobs.

I think the fassert is correct behavior. I suggest there is nowhere to deliver an exception that escapes a periodic task, so it should be a fatal error for one to escape.
