I knew about this config option. I never changed it. I now saw mine was set to 10 seconds (perhaps some FF update raised it from 5) and manually set it to 20, but still there are uploads taking much more than 20 seconds, and the reason that this "dom.max_script_run_time" exists is to avoid indefinite interface lockups. So locking the interface for 20 seconds instead of 5 is not a really good compromise, I think. Sometime in the past, I think somewhere in the FF bug tracker I read about this and they really said that this mechanism was a bad design choice and trhey're sort of stuck with it (and that IE has a better solution of the particular issue). Anyway, it seems they (Mozilla) are stuck with this bug until they do a big change, and then the best solution would be if the web interface could somehow avoid it.
