thank you for your response!
Unfortunately this method took even longer - 31sec on Magic.

Hi!
Currently, I'm using HTC Magic (1.5) and Acer Liquid (1.6) to test the
app.
my sample code snippet for API 2.0:
for (int i = 0; i 100; i++) {
Log.d(TAG,iteracja + i);
ContentValues personValues = new ContentValues();
personValues.put(Contacts.People.NAME, Test + i);
personValues.put(Contacts.People.STARRED, 0);
Uri newPersonUri =
Contacts.People.createPersonInMyContactsGroup(getContentResolver(),
personValues);
}
I did a few tests. Each time I changed NAME String in order to avoid
duplicates.
Results:
1) Acer Liquid (sync off) - 12 sec
2) Acer Liquid (sync on) - 30 sec
3) Acer Liquid (sync on) - 55 sec
4) Acer Liquid (sync on) - 35 sec
5) Acer Liquid (sync off) - 13 sec
1) HTC Magic (sync off) - 27 sec
2) HTC Magic (sync off) - stuck. log from logcat:
ERROR/CursorWindow(13459): need to grow: mSize = 1048576, size = 279,

then I turned the sync off and my application started running again
(without restarting the app)! took 30 sec to complete.
Even if we turn off sync on HTC Magic it takes a long time to simply
add empty contacts. Adding 5000 empty contacts (without any other
operations) would take 1500sec = 25min.

Hi!
I have some questions concerning importing contacts to the device,
which is extremely slow.
First of all, if you delete all your contacts, google sync will
restore it very quickly. However, when my app is adding contacts to
the device, it's very slow (a few contacts per second). Even if I add
almost empty contacts (with name only), it is a time-consuming
process.
If I turn google sync off, importing 5000 contacts can take 1-2 hours
(on HTC Magic). When google sync is on it can take up to 24hours. And
this happens despite the fact, that application for the whole time is
in the foreground, device is connected to charger and screen is on. I
checked the logcat to make sure my app is adding the contacts the
whole time, and it is.
I tried different methods and different devices. The results differ of
course, yet manually adding contacts is always significantly slower
that google sync. Is there any way that I can speed up the process? So
that importing 5000 contacts will take less than an hour.

[android-developers] Re: Proper way of importing contacts to the device/contacts operations are very slow
Can you give us some example? As I understand, AsynTask is used for
threading. How should I use it to improve speed?
I suppose I could create an AsyncTask with a method doInBackground().
This method would add only one contact at a time. Then, I call execute
a hundred times. Is this what you mean?
I will appreciate any more information :)
