> MtGox was apologetic in support ticket I filed, but did not explain why it took so long other than they had "issues".

Elsewhere MtGox employees have explained that their bank has limited them to 10 international wire transfers per day due to capacity issues - they claim at one point they were responsible for 50% of the international wire transfers of their bank, the second largest in Japan. Apparently international wire transfers aren't very popular in Japans o they're all processed manually, which doesn't scale to what MtGox are doing.
