On my shared host, there is no limit on memory, so no problems there,
however the 30 second limit temporarily bit me with the EM. To get
around this, I put an ".htaccess" file in /[path to
typo3]/typo3/mod/tools/em that has one line in it:

php_value max_execution_time 120

That keeps the default 30 second limit for everything else (which I
wouldn't want taking any longer, but lets me give specific apps, in
this case the Typo3 EM, the increase in time that they need.

However, there is yet another solution. Get the 'Light Extension
Manager' by Chi Hoang extension key:  ch_lightem
This extension uses the database to significantly increase
performance. Works great.
