Backup hangs on wp_postmeta table

    Thanks for this plugin. The backup seems to hang indefinitely on processing up the wp_postmeta table. The table, and thus DB, are I think larger than average for a WP site, with the DB currently totaling about 56MB and the wp_postmeta table at about 32MB. The wp_postmeta.sql file in the backup folder sits at around 17-20MB. Any ideas?

    post_max_size and upload_max_filesize are set to 100MB; max_execution_time is set to 3600 sec.

    Log file ends with below.

    It’s usually caused by a limit on the hosting provider, try excluding your files from the backup and see if the database completes as the only task.

    You can also ask your hosting provider to look at the web server logs to see if something is killing the process before the backup is complete.
