Run lsof on the production database file just in case there is some contention. 
(You never know).

I assume that the copied "test" database was indexed immediately after its
creation. If this was the case then the entire file may have been in the OS
cache resulting in very quick indexing. Try running "wc prod.db" or 
"cat prod.db >/dev/null" and then creating the indexes on prod.db to see 
what happens.
