Well, that depends on what it actually is doing during these 10 minutes,
but changing mirrors might help; as might changing hardware to anything
made in, say, the last ten years; and you'll probably want to upgrade
that 300 baud modem in the corner, too.
In short, a slightly more complete report would help, as I'm pretty much
guessing.
