I had the problem of DVD burn taking ages, too. 
I used brasero.
my machine only has 256MB Ram, 1.6 ghz cpu
it took about 3.5 hrs to burn a 3.8gb data dvd, including just over 1hr 
generating the checksum.

-- 
DVD writing takes more than an hour with any DVD, set to any speed in both 
Brasero and Gnomebaker
