Seems like it is looking for something on a server somewhere and if the server is busy it complains. Even though it hangs, it still seems to build the html all right.

It's probably trying to download the DTDs that you're referencing at the
top of all of your files. Since you're using xsltproc, you can take
advantage of its support for XML Catalogs:

faster once you do this.
