I suspect its that there's many little files, and while your connection 
may have a fast streaming speed, it could have a high latency?

the 'getting files information' part is basically doing a 'dir' over ftp.

try using lftp to get the .iso file and see how fast that runs, it 
should be as fast as anything else.
