Just tried the svn version. Behaviour is pretty much the same. Part of 
it is not lag, more strange screen refresh, at least in the partition 
selection area. The cursor moves very slowly when attempting to select a 
mount point, and the boxes don't update until the mouse cursor is moved 
again after making the selection.

Can't comment on the later problems. This time, the selected / partition 
was formatted (xfs is my normal preference), and the install fails 
before it reaches the end. Error is as below:

[45] File or Directory does not exist MdlMain.?.0

Attempting to use the text install also fails - it can't find the cd 
media and fails at that point.

I'm going to try the same CD on my old test machine - PIII 1.2 with 512 
MB of RAM and an Elsa Synergy AGP card. Be interesting to see what its 
like in that environment.
