Given the profound changes in Leopard, it's not surprising it's taking a while. I'm on my third install of Leopard. I'm not at all sure that Time Machine works all that well; when it was doing a backup of 6.5 gigs the other day (it picked up on a flash drive I had stuck in there), I trying stopping it. On the next reboot, there was a message that 6000+ orphaned files had been deleted; and I've had periodic disk corruption with TM running, on a 3 month old Mini that was stable with Tiger. Carbon Copy Cloner does produce a bootable clone, slowly; but won't update an existing clone and may or may not actually get everything copied with all the metadata right.

There are not a lot of good alternatives to SuperDuper, which suggests that the difficulties with Leopard are substantial.
