Yes, it runs fine too. There is indeed something happening on the server
at this specific time but I don't know what.

I could do this but it would make the script a lot more complicated.
There are a lot of views that I \copy directly to this share, and this
is the only one that poses any problem.

Sorry, I don't undertand either. Your question was "Does it hangs
against the same line content or the same line number?".
I run an sql script that contains a bunch of \copy commands. It is
always the same \copy that is hanging.

Everything is windows based, so rsync is not really an option. There are
alternatives of course.
I could write the file locally, but for robustness I'm trying not to
rely on the local FS so that this script could be run from any machine
on the network without modifications.
