linux - DDRescue - Did I do the wrong command which is causing it to take longer then expected

I am running the following command on a 500GB drive:

ddrescue --force --direct /dev/sde2 /home/backups/sde2.img sde2_logfile.ddrescue

However, the time has been almost 24hrs and all it has done so far is almost 10GB:

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 9.2G Jul 22 13:35 sde2.img

Did I do a wrong command that is causing this process to take longer then it should?
