There are thousands of files that have to be scanned then saved. Even for a small file there is a minimum time it will take. For example 1000 files at 0.5 seconds is 8.3 minutes. Many leagues have 20,000-30,000 files.
Going forward you do want to use the windows defrag utility or acquire a third party one. Fragmented files on your HD will definitely slow things down over time.
