Periodic imports set to refresh feeds hourly with cron job are executed and completed, according to logs, but clearly timing out after 30 seconds without completing on all my Feeds (25+ feeds, 200+ feed items).
Hoping someone can help by clarifying whether this is a known limitation of Feeds, related to my server configuration settings (which I thought I’d ruled out), and what else I might try to execute a large batch of Feeds updates on cron jobs.
This is a repost of issue logged in documentation, now in code support request, in case better able to solicit a response from knowledge in the community.

ianthomas_ukClosing, as this is over two years old so almost certainly not still a problem for this user.
For the benefit of anyone who finds this in search results, php generally kills scripts after 30 seconds, although that time can be configured in php.ini. A better solution is to configure the feeds_process_limit hidden setting so that your import is process in batches, see the module's README.txt, http://drupalcode.org/project/feeds.git/blob/HEAD:/README.txt
