Having designed a bunch of surveys myself, and having seen some go wrong, I would guess they thought about it in terms of the amount of time, not effort. It might take you 15 mins to fill out a form, but if a lot of that is your address and typing free form answers it's not as taxing as reading long lists of options that often are differentiated by only a word or two. It's not just that it's long, it's that it feels like a long test.

Guess it didn't help that I was pressed for time, but it just seemed to go freakin on and on.
