OK,

• I suggest you add timeout = 3m (= 3 minutes, just a guess) to your site config.
• Also, for your local build, I suggest you set HUGO_CACHEDIR to a directory that exists. Hugo will create one in a temp dir if not set, and that may not be optimal.
• Image processing is slow, but very fast once the cache is warm.
