Are you sure that's all RSpec? rspec-core-2.2 actually runs faster than 
rspec-core-1.x, and a lot of the Rails framework changed as well. And don't 
forget bundler. There are a lot of moving parts here, so if you can isolate the 
slow down to RSpec, please let us know what you find so we can address any 
specific issues.

Thanks!
