First Fuzzy

My cornsnake had taken 2 pinkies for the last couple of meals so last night I decided to offer her a fuzzy. I chose the smallest one, but even so, it looked big, when using the rule of 1 1/2 times the snakes girth. She took it ok, but it took her over an hour to eat it. I have never had a snake take so long & usually this one is a real fast eater. She didn't appear to be struggling with the fuzzy, but would pause after every advance, for up to 10 minutes, seeming quite content to "rest". Is this anything to be concerned about? (I.e., could it indicate that the fuzzy really was a little big for her?)
