Extending build time

Hello, I have trouble building my app as it takes too much time - there are too many images to process. May i ask for extending the build time? 30 minutes should be good enough.

Site ID: 598f0125-181f-42ec-9852-dc4cebcce897

@JakubKnv I requested this be added to the UI in Nov 2021:

It was added as able to be self-service via the API in Mar 2022:

You can wait for a Netlify staff member to assist, but if you want to try the API you can apparently set up to 30 minutes yourself, (any longer does require intervention by Netlify staff).

It’s a bit complex for me, I’d like to get some help from Netlify staff member

@JakubKnv That’s fair enough, make sure to like my feature request from 2021 then!

Sure! So now i need to wait for it to be extended?

@JakubKnv Unfortunately yes.

Hi @JakubKnv,

Thanks for reaching out!

I’ve increased the build timelimit for the site to 30 minutes (from the default 15 minutes). Let us know if you have any questions.

Sadly, it doesn’t work - looks like the problem is of a different nature.
In gatsby-node.js i process images in onCreateNode function. Two types of data are being processed here - recipes consists of 20 items - articles consists of over 400 items.
I noticed that when i remove image processing jobs for articles from my code - the build is completed correctly.

@JakubKnv Killed usually indicates that the build has run out of memory.

See: [Support Guide] What can I do if my build fails for memory-overallocation-related errors?
