You're not missing anything. The import takes a long time to run. Its doing a lot of updates which are expensive in SQL. The good news is that you can pretty much use the system while its doing the import because everything is atomic. There might be some tuning you could do on your database side that would speed things up, but that is a much larger discussion. Michael
