I think that after the Akatsuki really went on the move at the beginning of Part II, and while they continued to make progress with capturing the tailed beasts, they weren't concerned much with how many members were left, so long as there were enough to finish the job. Especially now that they're almost finished, with only two left to go.
By the way, I wonder when that Cloud team and Hawk will finally arrive?
Edit: I mean it took Pain and Konan like 2 seconds to get to Konoha IIRC, but while he wreaks havoc in the place everyone else takes their sweet time to show up.
