If you have sufficient ram, then you can use the non-slim mode, otherwise you could consider the slim mode with the --drop option. Both are considerably faster than the normal slim mode import.
Applying diffs with osm2pgsql is orders of magnitude slower per element than the initial import. Which makes a full import faster even for moderately short periods of diff application. Where the change-over lies exactly, probably depends somewhat on the hardware, but applying a weeks diffs will probably take a few days.
