Basically I don't really understand what happens in transition to and from the island, but the rocket took half an hour to make a 30 second or so journey to the island, and Sayid and co seemingly took two days to make a short journey. I don't know that it was so much time's going slower on the island as it was something happening during the journey - from the helicopter crew's POV, it didn't take long to reach the boat, but a whole night seemed to have passed. It seems to be a wormhole effect. That said, Daniel did say something about time-perception being different on the island. So, eh. I don't really know.
Yeah i was thinking that it could be due to the time bubble thing around the island. But as you pointed out, it explains how Walt has aged so much.
