When I run vagrant up to provision a new VM on Lion it takes an extremely long time, during which the entire Mac is very laggy and unresponsive.

The output is as follows, the key point being the "notice: Finished catalog run in 754.28 seconds"

VirtualBox! This may cause things such as forwarded ports, shared

this machine, please update the guest additions and repackage the
