Well...it looks like http method has promise; the installation gets
through about 12% finished (1.2G) and at that point estimates 28 minutes
for the installation (which is what I'd expect). However, the
installation then hangs. Dropping to a shell on the installing system,
anaconda is using between 20 and 70% CPU doing *something*, but no
installation is actually occurring.

I tried this and saw no effect. I got a ~50% improvement by appending
'noipv6' to the kernel command line, however.
I'll try http/ftp later and see if I see any drastic improvements

I've found that by tuning the NFS options I can get an install down
to around 15 minutes (~870 packages). nfs --server=1.2.3.4

Hmmm, interesting, there's probably a clue there. Does that suggest
network issues as opposed to disk issues? Unfortunately it's not a
direct solution at least for me, for ftp installs.
