Thank you, but it doesn'T explain why i can run the other script for 5 minutes without any set_time_limit

In php.ini the default time limit is set. And when you set the time limit in a script at the start of a loop, the limit counter starts counting at zero again, or in any cae if you set it to 180, the script gets another 180 secs to run

i'd like to get a precise explanation on why it's doing it, for the time being i will use set_time_limit for this script.
