Sure, open up a new MySQL session, and use "SHOW PROCESSLIST;" to monitor the query status. It should report what it's doing and how long the process has been running.

Hello, How can I tell if a process is "hanging"? I am performing a large (fairly) insert from one table to another (insert into... select from) I have been looking at a non-MySQL prompt for 20 minutes or more (non, meaning: after you execute a command you are between prompts for awhile until the command is finished, at that time you get a prompt again). Thanks!
