MView... Fresh build is much faster than Complete refresh...

So I have this materialized view. When I execute the create materialized
view command, it takes 32.39 seconds to build. A complete refresh (exec
dbms_mview.refresh('mview_name','C'); ) from the prompt this takes almost
3-4 times longer. Does anyone have any thoughts on why this might be so just
right off hand. I've not run a 10046 on it yet,  but I thought maybe there
is something about MVIEW Full Refreshes that I'm just missing.
