Hmm... I guess you did say it was the browser that timed out, not the server. Well, I would just go back to using the command-line and not trying to run it through a web server. Then it doesn't matter if it take a minute or ten minutes.
If you really want to do the web server route you could try cache files (http://analog.cx/docs/cache.html) to speed it up, but that severely limits your ability to do analysis because it breaks all the multivariate links. Alternately, you could always try throwing more hardware at it. -- Jeremy Wadsack Seven Simple Machines > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:analog-help- > [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of R C > Sent: Thursday, July 20, 2006 2:23 PM > To: [email protected] > Subject: RE: [analog-help] Analog not working with webpage > > My cgi script timeout is already set to 3600 seconds... that should be > enough right?
