Please let me know if you figure it out. I have a server
with a similar problem which persists even after changing 
virtually every component of the system. One hint I learned
is that it can at times hang for serveral hours and then 
proceed. Just because it's been several minutes does not 
necesarily mean a 180 mile trip to the datacenter.
