can you reproduce that with any supported version?

breaking news: php5 is dead, PHP 7.0 is EOL
7.1/7.2 are active supported

anything below only for critical security issues

Just updated to php 7.2.11. Still the same error. This happens if php opcache is enabled.

Only if opcache is enabled?

I'll do a test without opcache. Since this is production environment, I have to schedule it.

Reloading config with SIGUSR2 does not work. If you do, the running php-fpm instance is not functional any more.

After 1 day I received 4 aborts of type "Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded". I've tested with module opcache NOT loaded, so my guess was wrong.

Anything else you need?

The same problem exists for the current release 7.3.x:
Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded

[REQUEST_TIME] => 1563669631 (21.07.2019 00:37:40)
Log-Time: 2019-07-21 13:06:01

Is it possible this has sth. to do with persistent database connections using mysqli class?

I can see some processes do not get renewed:

As you can see the processes 546, 566, 627 have already run longer than the maximum execution time (30) and have surely fullfilled enough requests so they should get renewed.

Logfile says:
[28-Jul-2019 02:53:06] WARNING: [pool www] server reached max_children setting (120), consider raising it

Is there a case if the limit is hit?

I realize that this is quite old but is this still happening on any of the supported version (at least 7.4, ideally check on 8.0)? If so, would you be able to configure slowlog as it might show some clues.
