What's up with DA-10 Front Derailleur action?

Anyone else notice stiff and clunky performance of the new DA 10-speed front derailler? I just did my first install of a 7800 group and was shocked at the difference in feel between the front and rear derailler action. The rear derailleur shifts smooth as silk and the levers move with ease. However both the large and small levers for the front derailleur take substantially more effort to move. Worse yet, when I move the cage from the big chainring to the small ring, the darn thing pops with a "bang" that's violent enough to vibrate my entire frame.
The cables are routed correctly without binding or interference. What on earth could be causing this?
