I'd pop the lid off and play around with it. Can you get it to flow normally by pushing on the float either direction? Does anything change/get hit after a flush?
Barring anything in the filling mechanism (ie toilet side), do you have an "anti-flood" supply line? (They have mechanisms in them to cut water in event of a burst, and can often slow down filling). My money would be on that. They look just like a normal braided steel line, except normally a little fatter with bigger connectors on either end.
