A full install is more than two and a half gigabytes (it's the Garritan sounds that take up most of the space). The installer needs to download those gigabytes from MakeMusic to your computer, taking more or less time depending on your connection speed and how busy the MakeMusic server is.
On Mac there are two problems with the installer: first, it adds two zeros to the percentages, showing from 100% to 10000%, and second, its estimate of the time remaining is wildly wrong. After a few minutes it told me that there was about a minute left until completion. It kept telling me this for two hours, which was unsettling. After a bit more than two hours, the installation was complete, which is normal for my internet connection and the size of the files.
