This is weird. There can be a explanation for first line: The data crawled was large so dumping would take a lot of time but as you said there were very less urls so it should not take 30+ mins unless you crawled some super large files. Have you checked the job attempts for the job ? If there are no logs there then there is something weird going on with your cluster.
