it always takes a really long time on the first run. yours must have been exceptionally fragmented if it was taking that long. i've had people come in that were so bad it would take 12+ on the first run. after you've done it and cleaned your system out thoroughly itll run almost instantly, by that I mean ~10min run time depending on the specs of your computer.
