Yes, unfortunately so! There's current work implementing an experimental protocol speedup to mitigate this problem. Additionally, you can skip checkpointing to further increase the speed of state transfer. We have a design for a protocol where state transfer has constant overhead (i.e. transfer time does not slow when state transfers are large) but we're planning to evaluate the current protocol speedup before making any further moves.
