 * Hi,
    WP-Optimize is stuck at optimizing database tables “usermeta” and when used
   developer tools, I found the request timed out on accessing /wp-admin/admin-ajax.
   php via POST. I contacted my host, and they confirmed that no blocking is active
   on the server side. Please help

 * Hi,
 * Apologies for the delay.
 * What is the time limit that you are encountering set to?
    Please could you ask
   your hosts if it is possible to increase this timeout?

 * Hi again,
    Maximum execution time is set to 360. I tried to raise it to 400 with
   no luck.
