Are you creating the SQL by hand?  You probably want to be emulating the
format used by the MySQL dump utility.  That'll make sure it gets loaded in
quickly.

In particular, I suspect it's probably doing live indexing.  What you want
to do is load all the data and then index at the end rather than indexing
as you go.
