Memtest question

I am trying to run memtest right now with 2x1GB of DDR2-800 Kigmax ram and 2x512mb of DDR-2 OCZ Gold ram at DDR2-850. For some reason memtest runs REALLY slow (ie.long pauses between percentage increases even for the 1st and 2nd tests) compared to if I just had 2 sticks of ram.

Anyone come across this before?

It's not slow, but there is more memory to test.
 
Yes it is definitely long but your ram config looks or sounds rather unusual with a mix of 1gb & 512mb stick.
My take on your ridiculously long pause is that Memtest takes its own time to reconfigure the timing and the test patterns it's going to submit for the next pass.
