Something seems quite wrong. Amber MD programs print out timings details at
the end of each run...look at those to see if you can see what is different
between the two runs.
MD times are generally, and roughly, linear in the number of atoms being
simulated. Since your protein is probably(?) much bigger than you ligand, the
two simulations should take about the same amount of time.
As you can appreciate, no one will be able to provide more specific
information based on the single sentence description provided above.
