Truma Combi Eco heating times?

We have a '22 Thor Promaster 2500 Tellaro with the propane only 2.6 gallon Truma Combi Eco water heater/furnace. The Eco+ and Comfort models also add electrical heating elements to heat the water in addition to propane. We're seeing times of 40-45 min to go from ambient temp (60-70 degree) water to 140 degree water (when the flashing icon on the display stops flashing). Specs say it should be closer to half that time. We select the ECO temp setting. Selecting HOT or BOOST is only bumping up the resulting final temp as I understand it. I don't think they actually "turn up" the propane's flame. Just like a home gas water heater doesn't increase the "flame size" when you increase the temp. The flame just continues at the same "size" until a higher temp is achieved. Are these 40-45 min times excessive or normal?
