If you backup both your DB and all files, you should be able to get your forum back if things go south.

I was having a similar issue. Un-check the "Use Gzip Compression" option if it's set. That's what worked for me. No size difference and lightning fast.

Hope that helps and good luck!

I usually check the "Skip Search Index" but that shouldn't matter in your case. Do you get thrown to a internal server error code screen or does the backup die at the datadump screen?

If you can get to the command line on your server you can try running admdump.php from the CLI. The CLI tends to give you better debug information.

I know my suggestion is a stretch knowing most host providers don't allow that type of access, including mine.
