Anyone ever see where -v will stall, and do nothing, where as trying -d
right after, and it moves right along?

The -d option prints everything that is printed by -v, plus debug- level messages that expose what's happening internally. As the man page puts it:

-d       debug mode (generate debugging messages, implies -v)


Right, but I have repeated cases where -v will just hang, unless 5 minutes later it should be doing something, but I have a feeling something should show after 5 minutes.

I just wanted to see if anyone else experienced it. I do see it on multiple machines.

Scott, my guess is what you call a "hang" is only port doing some process for which there is no screen output under -v like compling a chunk of code......
