# [Plugin: WP Super Cache] Maximum execution time on page update

 * When I update a page with many sub-pages, something breaks when wp super cache
   is activated. How to solve this (apart from increasing max execution time)?

 * Yeah, I noticed this today myself.
    Got a few 500 errors as well.

 * I think you have too many cached pages. That line is in the prune_super_cache()
   function that helps clear up cached files.
 * You should probably run garbage collection more often and disable preload mode.
   Or increase max execution time unfortunately.

 * More garbage collection did the trick. Thanks
