The slowness is not a problem of the writing the files to the spool folder, it's actually pushing the files out. We were able to generate the files fairly quickly, but cf only uses a single thread in the standard edition to push files out, so even though we had a dedicated mail server the files were going out slow.
As I mentioned, if this hasn't been a problem before, and it is a problem now, most likely the culprit is the mail server.
