Or you could look at it as Draco is taking longer to reach a stage of 
wisdom that harry obtained a long time ago.  Of the two of them, I 
would say that Harry has had the 'easier' route because his judgement 
of friends and enemies has been better than Draco's (lets just compare 
Ron/Hermione with Crabbe/Goyle to test that theory), and when he is 
wrong he shifts gears pretty quickly.  Draco has stuck to wrong 
assumptions for quite a long time. if he is changing then he's doing it 
at a glacial pace.
