Think you will find it depends on the speed of your writer and what you are writing.
CD to CD will be slower than writing from h/drive to cd (but this can also depend on h/drive speed), takes me approx 8-10 mins to write full cd to hard drive and back to a cd

It sounds as if DMA mode may not be enabled 
You didn't say what OS you're using m8 but if you are using XP...
Go to Control Panel > System > Hardware > Device Manager and then right-click on IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers for the channels your CD drives are using click properties go to Advanced Settings tab and in the Transfer Mode pulldown menu ensure that "DMA if available" is selected.
Slightly off the subject but I was using CloneCD 4.0.0.1 with my LiteON and the audio CDs I wrote 'clicked' and were heavily distorted I will go back to an older version for now but was wondering if you experience anything similar.

You may find that latest Clone is rather intellegent and will perhaps try and overide even manual settings (henceforth) in order to try and give the best copies and results that it can.

Please give us a bit more info on the tackle you are using so that we may advise further.
There isn't much difference to where the DMA setting is, may as well check it in case
Control panel > System > then the Device Manager tab > doubleclick on CDROM, then right click on each of your drives that appear and go to Properties go to the Settings tab of the window that pops up and make sure that DMA is checked.
Without DMA enabled read is limited to 8x or so.
Try using the Drive Speed utility that comes with Nero if you have it just to see what speed you are actually getting.
