We assume you are referring to this one:

HD Request # 5 | Received 25253792 records from 2013-08-01 04:14:38 to 2013-12-20 08:29:59 (141.2 days) and wrote 0 records for ES-201312-GLOBEX | 2015-01-04 12:11:04
HD Request # 5 | Intraday download COMPLETE for ES-201312-GLOBEX. Completion time: 12m 10s. Unique request ID: 4 | 2015-01-04 12:11:04



Obviously the available bandwidth between the Server and the Client is what determines this speed. Maybe your ISP was doing some throttling as well. Maybe the problem is now gone.

25,000,000 records is also a large amount of records.

The only thing that makes a definitive difference and can reduce this time significantly is to increase Global Settings >> Data/Trade Service Settings >> Intraday Data Storage Time Unit.
