Hi Brian, thanks for the explanation, it makes a lot more sense now.
Yes, the system is very busy. This is running on VMWare, and while the doxygen is running there is a compiler or two running in the virtual machine at the same time. In addition to that the doxygen process gets pretty big (> 250 MB), so copying everything over might take a little while. 5 minutes seems seriously excessive, but I guess I could hit that limit if a lot of the main process's memory has gone into swap, and if the Linux build (which is running on the main system) takes longer than it should and runs into the VMWare build's time slot. So yes it is a stretch, but in my situation I could actually see it happen. I'll look into lightening the load on the system and give the doxygen a little more processor time.
