max execution time

[mohTareq]

as a free user, do i get suspended if my script exceeds a certain limit? even if the scirpt isn't consuming a lot of processor time (eg: script goes to sleep in a loop for example, or just doing simple code)

Here are the guidelines which result in high system resource suspensions on our free hosting systems.

* 25% CPU
* 5% memory (eg 400 MB)
* 240 seconds of CPU time per hour
* 20 concurrent processes executing

If a user exceeds any of these limits for longer than 60 seconds, they will have a suspension applied to their account.

It's entirely possible your script could cause a high resource usage suspension just on the 20 processes executing or the 240 seconds cpu time. That said, if you remain within these limits you should be fine, but keep in mind that under the TOS we don't allow scripts that run constantly either.

Ok so if i use ini_set('max_execution_time',$x), roughly how much could x reach without being in danger
