Is there any way to increase the maximum time that a plugin can execute for?
It’s 2 minutes by default. I found that here.

The limit is there to help protect the performance of the server, so the correct approach here is to re-engineer your solution (e.g. move your intensive logic out into a workflow or a web service and call it asynchonrously).
I’m not aware of any setting, flag or registry entry that will extend the two-minute timeout, though if you must persevere, you may find it possible to fudge a solution by wrapping your logic in a try/catch block,
catchingSystem.TimeoutExceptionand continuing your code. Maybe (untested).
