Hi Michael,

 

Thanks for providing the information I've requested.

 

First, please do note that it is normal behavior for the link checker script to experience timeouts. Even if the execution would hit the execution limit, it will continue the next time it runs. So, you may notice that the script would log messages like 'Resuming work from a previous execution' or 'Stopped checking URLs early because of x'. You may also try increasing the timeout_buffer variable to a value of 1000.

 

On that note, you may also refer to this section touching up on the Quotas for Google services from our documentation on Limits where it states to get around the "Exceeded maximum execution time" error, you can reschedule your script under multiple user accounts to extend the script's quota.
