Well, especially if you optimize after your indexing operation, you could easily have your index size double temporarily. The reason is that replication moves the changed segments. When you optimize, your entire index is re-written into a new segment and presto! your index on the slave doubles. This is because the slave has to keep serving requests from the old index until the new version is ready. After warmup, the old searcher is shut down and the new searcher takes over and the old index should be deleted.
As to why it takes so long, how long does it take to transfer 80G outside Solr? Sounds like a slow network to me. And how much free disk space is there on the slave? Your machine may just be having trouble finding the space to write to...
