Sim Posted February 23, 2011 Posted February 23, 2011 They are bad but GOOD. Today I found out my hosting really does allow unlimited disk space when my program got stuck in an infinite loop and created over 1TB of image files in a few minutes. ;\ Over 100,000 image files... Bad news is. ITS TAKEN FOREVER TO DELETE.. and there damn support wouldn't delete them for me as I am not hte owner of the account. Quote
a_bertrand Posted February 23, 2011 Posted February 23, 2011 Odd as normally PHP files are limited to 30 sec execution time... Anyhow you could as well write script to delete those files. Quote
Spudinski Posted February 27, 2011 Posted February 27, 2011 SIm: Nothing is unlimited. 1TB is really small for any hosting company. But yes, as a_bertrand said, it is a "very" bad idea to disable the execution time. In my opinion, if a web script is taking more than 30 seconds to execute, there really is something wrong. Quote
