This is most likely caused by the nodump flag changes in
src/sbin/dump/traverse.c v 1.10.2.2 (STABLE).  If you have an older
drive (slower) and are using the nodump flag to prevent backup of files
or directories your analysis is probably taking too long and timing
out.  On my machines I have had to keep traverse.c at version 1.10.2.1
