    Hey there,

    Thanks for getting in touch.

    So the specific issue here is “Maximum cpu execution time of 10 seconds exceeded”.
    This is a restriction that’s been imposed by your hosting provider. This is extremely low and I recommend you contact your host and ask them to increase the limit.

    If they are unable to increase the CPU execution time I might be worth upgrading hosts.

    Cheers!

    Hey Owain,
    I have contacted Transip (my host). They told me that it isn’t possible to increase the limit because it is a shared webhosting environment. They suggested to ask the developer of the plugin if it’s possible to spread the script over several, less time consuming, scripts.
    Is that a possibility?

    Regards

    Hi Rule,

    Not really possible I’m afraid.

    What you maybe able to do however is split your backup into several schedules. In this case you would have 2 or 3 “complete” backup schedules each of which only backup a portion of your uploads folder. This will reduce the time each schedule takes to backup.

    Though this isn’t an ideal solution, I would recommend finding a better host.

    Cheers,
    Owain
