When the process is running, where does its STDOUT go? Is it being redirected to a file, or piped to some other process? (If it's just spilling into a terminal window, you might as well not be printing to STDOUT at all.)
In either case, have you checked the status of the recipient? (The process would naturally have to wait if it couldn't write to STDOUT, e.g. because of an input-buffer-full condition on a downstream pipeline process.)
