Is it just Me/My-System or does InCD bring your system to a crawl?

I've got Nero6+ and InCD (version from October 2004), and I just wrote about 425 MB of data to a blank InCD formatted CDRW (4x), and it took well over 20 minutes and while this was going on my system (Beauty in my sig), Win2000 with 512 MB DDR slowed to a crawl. Virtually everyting computed like I was using a 286! Is this typical? Task Manager showed relatively low CPU usage and RAM usage was below 300 MB. Any ideas appreciated.
