On my system when fsck runs at boot plymouth % completion count goes up quickly (<10 seconds) up to about 80% and then slows down considerably: the complete fsck of my 125GB HD, 30% full takes more than 5 minutes.
An fsck from a recovery disk completes in ~10 seconds so it doesn't look like "fsck just being slow".

This slowdown was *not* happening on 2010-04-14 with the PPA described by this comment: https:/ /bugs.launchpad .net/ubuntu/ +source/ plymouth/ +bug/554737/ comments/ 25
The fix in the PPA is now in the mainline lucid but somewhere in between then and today (2010-04-29) something introduced this slowdown.
