This is a known issue when diffing large files (with any distribution).
If the process goes over 300 seconds, the SSL layer connection times
out, and the data cannot be uploaded later on. You have to either set
MaximumDiffingTime to 300 in your backup config file, or use a modified
BoxBackup:

... which includes a KeepAlive command to allow for longer diffs. This
issue is to be fixed in the next upcoming version of BoxBackup.
