If you changed settings that affect what is backed up (eg: the share names, BackupFilesOnly or BackupFilesExclude) after the full but before the incremental then the incremental will have a lot more work to do. If you make significant changes it's not a bad idea to manually run a full backup. As suggested already, inspecting the XferLOG files will tell you more about why the first incremental took longer than you expected.
