For it to take a very long time is an indication something is wrong...

The ext3fs.img being this large doesn't surprise me, but the squashfs is 
way too large. I'm not sure what happened, could you run with --debug 9 
and see if the increased verbosity gives any indication? If you send me 
the log and the configuration I'll take a close look at them.
