So the point is different each time?  Can you abort with ^C?  What
does the traceback say?

If it worked with 0.12.1 before, you can downgrade to that version and
see if it works.  It could also just be network problems---maybe you
would see the same behavior if you tried to scp a 700MB file.  Finally
I think that restore should skip file that are already in place.  So
you may be able to complete your restore session by repeatedly running
the same command, getting a little further each time.
