I solved this problem (Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 60 seconds exceeded in /home/site/www/site.com/wp-includes/plugins.php on line 274) by editing the wp-includes/functions.php in line 600.
Originally, its: “$buf = fread( $fp, 4096 );”
But I changed it: “$buf = fread( $fp, 16384 );”
Works for me! However, I am not sure of the repurcussions though…
