what exactly are you referring to? max execution time of what? a single
request? application timeout? session timeout?

all those can be set in CF Administrator and also in individual pages
(look up <cfsetting> tag).

Basically, just add requestTimeout=time at the end of your page. E.g. :

http://www.mysite.com/mypage.cfm?requestTimeout=86400

This will allow your script to run for 24 hours without stopping. But please
make sure that you know what you're doing when you're allowing your script to
run for a long time.

Does this still work? I thought the requestTimeout URL variable had
been deprecated in the latest versions of ColdFusion.

This is what I found with a brief search. This if from some CF6
documentation.

The cfsetting requestTimeout attribute replaces the use of requestTmeOut
within a URL.
