Meaning of Trigger Aggregate Execution Time in Apps Script dashboard quota limits?

Question

My code will process data in batches as recommended in this this post and I wanted to get a clarification of the meaning of "Trigger Aggregate Execution Time" on the Apps Script Dashboard

Does "Trigger Aggregate Execution Time" refer to the aggregate total runtime of triggered events and user run functions(by user run function i.e. I select Run->myFunction in the development environment) or total runtime of explicitly set triggered events as described here?

Does selecting Run->myFunction in the development environment contribute to the "Trigger Aggregate Execution Time"?

Answer 1

The Trigger Aggregate Execution Time is the total execution time for functions that were invoked from triggers. So, if you run a function from within the Script Editor, it will not contribute toward that limit, but if it was run based off of a time-based trigger, an onOpen trigger, etc. then it will contribute toward the limit.
