Shredder cannot shred ticket with many attachments

Hi everyone, first time post to the list but I have been following it for 2 years now - thanks for all the great advice.

I had a mail loop on my system during December. Someone emailed a corrupt attachment in, rt would send a response to watchers and my exchange server on the LAN NDR’d the message back to RT (corrupt attachment), RT in turn then sent out a mail to the watchers and this caused an eternal NDR/Response loop. I think I have in excess of 100,000 responses in the ticket

We were on 3.8.1 and now running 3.8.2rc1

In firefox I get the following timeout after a few hours:

I am also running Nagios on the box, will stop the service and try the shred again.

Any pointers will be appreciated

I ran it with nagios disabled and same error:
