Do you mean that if you leave "Delete files slowly" enabled that 
transcodes hang /forever/ or just that transcodes hang for approximately 
2min/GiB of the original file (assuming you have no other deletes in 
progress in the delete queue at the time when mythtranscode finishes).

I've run a /lot/ of transcodes (started through mythfrontend, but run on 
mythbackend in the job queue) with "Delete files slowly" enabled to try 
to reproduce the problem and I have not yet been able to get 
mythtranscode to hang after finishing (whether I have it delete the 
original file or not).

Perhaps you have a "stuck" delete queue due to 
http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/7692 (which /might/ be related--though 
I haven't investigates #7692, so I'm just guessing, here).
