Currently shard allocation is throttled by default with a target low value. If you are using an older version of Elasticsearch, then a Lucene bug will make it even slower.
http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/index-modules-store.html#store-throttling How many shards do your indices have? The default number of concurrent allocations is only 2. The ideal values depends on your hardware, especially your disk io.
