You might have to increase executionTimeout in web.config otherwise the request itself is timing out.

Have a look at executionTimeout at msdn. It explains the difference between Debug=True/False and this is probably causing the difference between localhost and production.

executionTimeout Optional Int32 attribute.

Specifies the maximum number of seconds that a request is allowed to execute before being automatically shut down by ASP.NET.

This time-out applies only if the debug attribute in the compilation element is False. If the debug attribute is True, to help avoiding application shut-down while you are debugging, do not set this time-out to a large value.

The default is 110 seconds.

Add executionTimeout to configuration/system.web/httpRuntime in Web.Config and let me know if it works:

<configuration>
  <system.web>
    <httpRuntime executionTimeout="600" />
  </system.web>
</configuration>
