I can see it having an impact, and apparently it does.

Imagine that parsing of the files takes up 90% of the 'Directory Scan'
and that database access takes up just 10%.  Of a scan that requires 30
minutes, 27 minutes is in parsing the files and 3 minutes is database
activity.  Now throw a slower database engine at the problem, and
imagine it takes twice as long to do the same database operations.  That
would mean the scan now requires 33 minutes.  It doesn't matter that
parsing the files takes up the larger share of the time.
