2 cents worth ./.

You know - I had a similar problem. For us, it turned out that 
Apache was timing out the page before analog had finished 
producing the output. By default, Apache times out after 5 minutes. 
Extend the timeout period in the Apache config files and you may 
find things work perfectly.
