First, see if it ever gets done by looking at /tmp/amanda/sendsize*debug.
Also, watch for the dump process to go away.

What OS is the client?  Do you have an up to date version of dump (note:
I don't necessarily know what constitutes "up to date", but that's been
a problem with some free Unix versions in the past)?

Normally dump is pretty quick at getting estimates (as compared to
GNU tar).  But if, for some reason, it is working OK on your system
but slowly, you can increase etimeout in amanda.conf to compensate.
See amanda(8).
