Well I ran the file(basically a modified dump file) and what I found is it:

1) Hung on:

INSERT INTO industry (industry_id, industry_classification,
industry_code, industry_description, depth, parent_id) VALUES
...
RETURNING industry_id;

INSERT 0 4333

and

INSERT INTO industry_level (industry_level_id, industry_classification,
ancestor_id, ancestor_code, ancestor_depth, descendant_id,
descendant_code, descendant_depth) VALUES
...
RETURNING industry_level_id;

INSERT 0 9326

2) It did not hang on:

INSERT INTO industry_structure (industry_structure_id,
industry_classification, depth, level_name) VALUES
...
RETURNING industry_structure_id;

INSERT 0 13

3) For the hung cases all the INSERTS completed, I just needed to hit
any key to get the next INSERT statement to kick off.

4) I don't see anything wrong the statements, so I am wondering if it is
a shell issue?
