You must use EXISTS if you work with big tables.
EXISTS use indexes, and IN use temporary tables.

-- this change nothing for IN :
CREATE INDEX import_id_index ON import(id);
CREATE INDEX import_ok_id_index ON import_ok(id);
-- slow :
-- DELETE FROM import WHERE id IN (SELECT id FROM import_ok) ;
DELETE FROM import WHERE EXISTS (
  SELECT id FROM import_ok AS ok
    WHERE ok.id = import.id
  );
