I think you usuallly have 14days to do up your snaglist and i have heard having even 100 items on the list is very normal so 6pages wouldnt surprise me. I would have thought it in the builders interest to do the first run though of the snag quick enough for you but maybe they're tied up in working on other houses to completion first. There doesnt seem to be a huge number of builders working on that site as I have seen they do houses in around groups of 5 at a time in Holywell.
WHy dont you just ring the builder yourself and see why its taking so long for them to do the changes as you still will have to re-check it and make sure they've done everything a second time anyway.

It depends on how good/bad the builders are to be honest.

I bought a new apartment last year, Did the first snag in June, second snag in August, 3rd in October and 4th in November! The builders were just shockingly bad and slow at fixing things.
