Even with a huge forum nothing should take 'hours'. Problem is, if you time out while it's happening you could lose control even though the step completed. I think all you can do at that point is force quit and start over.

We don't have enough information to tell you how long it should take. Step 104 is adding an index to your post table, so how long it takes depends on the size of your post table. You may want to check your error_logs and see if there is anything in there.
