Like I said before, in the logs at the begining I got this:

PHP Fatal error:  Allowed memory size of 67108864 bytes exhausted

I modified this to 128M and didnt complain anymore, but it did complain 
about the max_execution_time and it looked like this:

PHP Fatal error:  Maximum execution time of 60 seconds exceeded

I modified this to 240 seconds and after this didnt get any errors 
anymore from php, but got the erros in the error_log from nginx and it 
just didnt do anything... also the php-cgi process just hanged in the 
backgroud with 100% CPU usage. I had to stop fastcgi and kill then the 
process which was using 100% CPU.

So I really dont know what else to tune in php.ini
