The Rackspace Cloud system restricts the maximum execution time of any one cron job to 15 minutes. Please make sure that your script is well tested and can complete its intended job within this time frame.

This time limit is unreasonable. I have a script that syncs a large number of records from one system to another. This script can take 2-3 hours to complete.
