The slowness is not just with installation of the OS, sudo aptitude safe-upgrade takes a very long time if there are a decent number of pkgs to upgrade. Seems to be an issue with dpkg. Unpacking and setting up are where the slowness is most noticeable.

BTW, the problem the fedora user had with yum described in the link in comment #1 seems to have been resolved with a newer kernel version (2.6.31.4-88.fc12.x86_64). Even lucid is on 2.6.32.
