yeah that's the same issue i'm having, and it's really similar to the upstream bug, banshee is 'really' slow to import a huge amount of music, for me it's random: sometimes it crashes and other it just hang for ever.

It imports fine until it reaches somewhere around 7000 songs, then it hangs for a few minutes turningf gray, it resumes until reaching 10893 songs, then resumes again and keeps hanging occasionally, increasingly often. Most songs are ripped FLAC and OGA, with few MP3s. I am attaching two screenshots, running Natty (64 bit) with all updates.
