Why is the transfer for information taking so long? Tried by connecting and no good. Tried by WiFi and iCloud and it's taking forever.

What's going on Apple?
 
Depends on the amount of data you have to retrieve and restore and also on your internet speed.
Its alot faster if you have a local backup to restore from in your itunes library.
 
Also remember that millions of others are hitting the iCloud servers to restore their backups as well. Probably luck iCloud hasn't crashed based on recent performance of apples live stream and midnight preorder.
