Exporting a project as a runnable jar takes approx 30sec to build, the (auto created) Ant script that does the same takes about 10 minutes to build.
What am I missing?

A:
If you create things from Eclipse all components are already compiled whereas if you do this via a ant script everything must be compiled from the scratch so i would expect differences in compile/build time.

@Chris, maybe if you show us the Ant script, we can help you...

If you're absolutely positively sure that Eclipse has everything compiled (Project/Build Automatically is turned on), you can skip compiling in Ant entirely, but it's definitely not something I'd recommend. However, you can try it to test if that's the issue.
