I never played a high level caster, but I definitely remember PRE-meditate skill that it took much, much longer. I seem to recall as your meditate skill increased, your ability to scribe increased. It may be that scribing still took that long, but that you could memorize a spell much faster once you got meditate. Been so long for me to be for sure.
If you can find some hard data where people did time trials on scribing (i.e. not re-post your original message with no links) then you can make a bug report on it.
