Sending is very Slow

[webdesev]

Hi!!

Thank you for this great plugin! I made the perfect Newsletter for my client!

I just have a problem sending this morning our first newsletter…
I use Mandrill for sending and I have an excellent reputation for this moment….I can send around 2500 emails per hour.
I tried to set the maximum in “Max emails per hour ” setting in your plugin, and in fact it sending around 500/per hour!!

In diagnostic I have this :
Database Wait Timeout 28800 (seconds)
PHP Execution Time 30 (seconds)
NEWSLETTER_MAX_EXECUTION_TIME Not set
NEWSLETTER_CRON_INTERVAL 300seconds
PHP Memory Limit 256M

I really don’t know what to do to increase my sending rate?

Thanks for you help,

Hi, the PHP execution time is a little low, your should increase it to at least 120 seconds. You should do it on php.ini (many providers let you to change it) or try to force it on main newsletter configuration.

More, remember you may need an external cron to keep the system working correctly, see the newsletter documentation on the page dedicated to the delivery engine.

Stefano.

I changed the php.ini, but if I restart the service apache it won’t break my current campain?
