4 and 30 are correct, 29 is wrong.
The latest ZXDB update will be applied this evening at 1800 BST. The update takes around 30 minutes, and the site goes down whilst this happens.

All the Zoom meetings I've been in lately (no one has the paid version) have let you go passed 40 minutes. You get a message saying you can carry on.

Re: Longest cassette loading time for a ZX Spectrum game?
Starglider 128k used a loading scheme which split the data into several dozen blocks. Each block had a header, which when combined together they took a significant amount of time to load, almost as much as the actual data. I think Bubble Bobble had the same loading scheme.
