What means "seem to hang"? Recreating an index from a GB-ish ZODB
can take some time....so for long did you wait? In addition: try
to attach to the related process using strace and check if the process
shows some activity or: run Zope under the control of strace:

strace -f -oout bin/zopectl fg

and

tail -f out

and see the process halts halt some point..
