I did a couple of tests with large books (7 to 10+ MB) and in every instance it ran quickly until indicated the same 87% completion as you mention, when it paused. But in my case, after pausing, it then ran to completion. So in your case it seems to be failing at what appears to be a point of intensified processing activity.
Actually, at the time I thought Windows jumped in too quickly, but it gave me absolutely no options. The second time, as soon as it paused Windows shut it down. It''s been a loooong time since I did anything with QT, but I seem to remember back then there was something you were supposed to do to let the OS know the program wasn't hung up when performing some long task. But that's a very dim memory and not worth much.

Tried it two more times and it did exactly the same thing both times.
