The max_input variables seems to be making a difference. I had it at 5000 in my php.ini file in public_html, but that didn't seem to do the trick. Putting the command in .htaccess improved things. I watched the files build in the /temp/backup folder, but eventually it still got stuck. I used your command of max imput at 2000. I have changed it to 5000 and giving it another go.
