> Someone who actually knows texlive: Is it really supposed to be that big?
Yes. It should take two or three minutes to install on relatively modest hardware. If the root fs is approaching fullness, ext4 performance can deteriorate quite dramatically -- and if installing on the same host it's just been built on, there could well already be a 1.3 Gb package-texlive tree and a 0.7 Gb texlive-20130530-source tree under /tmp/SBo that might be on the root fs, and the final built package might also be in /tmp, so that's a peak demand of > 4 Gb. If that's not applicable to Rich's problem, it needs watching with top, ps, iostat etc. to see what is happening.
