R help - Oct 2014 - RForcecom VERY SLOW on large data sets

I started using RForcecom package to extract data from SalesForce.
It works very well for data sets with ~< 100K records, however
for a data set with ~400K records it becomes VERY SLOW
and export takes ~14h.

For comparison exporting the same table as csv using "report export"
in
SalesForce
takes about 1 minute.

Any ideas why? and how to make it faster?

Best regards,
Ryszard

One idea is to export to CSV and load it yourself.
