Are you doing the urlfetch in an offline call (task queue or cron)? If so,
the limit should be higher than 10 seconds as of SDK 1.4.1.

I hope this isn't an "online" call, because it would suck for a user to wait
30 seconds before a page load. You're better off showing the user a loading
screen, handing the job to a task queue, then updating the page when the
fetch has finished.
