I noticed the same behaviour with the Karmic installer and was hoping that Maverick would be faster.
Just tried the 10.10 beta Desktop CD: After choosing "Install Ubuntu" it takes 18s until the next menu appears. I choosed "Tick this box..." and it takes 3s until the box is marked. In the menu "Preparing to install" it takes 46s after hitting the "Forward"-Button. During preparing the partitions (every click results again in a 30s pause) the screen goes black for a second. After the menu reappeared my mouse lost its cursor. I can't believe that this is something the developers are not able to reproduce. Just an idea: my machine has an ATI Radeon 7000 card. Maybe this is a problem with kernel mode setting? The graphic preformance of the Maverick Live CD is also very poor (slow) - obviously no improvement compared to Karmic. I managed to copy the whole content of /var/log to an USB stick.
