How can PHP settings, such as memory limits and execution times, affect the successful import of large SQL files?

PHP settings such as memory limits and execution times can affect the successful import of large SQL files by potentially causing the script to run out of memory or time before the import is completed. To solve this issue, you can increase the memory limit and execution time in the php.ini file or set them dynamically within your PHP script using ini_set(). 

// Set memory limit and execution time dynamically
ini_set('memory_limit', '256M');
ini_set('max_execution_time', 300); // 5 minutes

// Your SQL import code here
