Early in beta testing, I ran into a similar problem. For some reason, after uninstalling and reinstalling, files are scattered in a variety of open spaces on your hard drive. It is especially bad if the remaining free space on your hard drive is less than 15 percent. Right click on the icon for your hard drive, usually C:, look at properties and see how much room is left on your drive.

Try defragging your hard drive, restart and then see if things speed up. I can't explain it, but it worked for me and I had to do this after almost every build in beta when I uninstalled and reinstalled the newer versions.
