SYN-scan and TCP-connect scan time difference.

Hello. I was scanning a large network (/18). I've noticed strange occasion. When I use 'sudo nmap --open -T4 -F -oX report xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/18', scanning lasts for more than 2 hours. But if I use 'nmap --open -T4 -F -oX report xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/18' it takes approximately 2 minutes. And no big difference when using '-n' option. Could you tell what the reason is? The only information I've found is http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2006/q1/370. So why is TCP-connect faster than SYN-scan? And why is the difference really big? Thanks!
