Hi Norbert, Is your import from devices slow even when there are no duplicates present? We know of an issue involving duplicates ( http://redmine.yorba.org/issues/3687) that can cause Shotwell to become unresponsive, but if a usual-case import (i.e. no duplicates) slows Shotwell to the point of being unresponsive, that's a serious problem and we should open a new ticket for it.
Curiously, does import speed seem in any way proportional to the number of photos you have in your library? If you've got an empty library, is import faster than in your personal photo library with (I'm guessing) thousands of photos? I ask because a slowdown proportional to library size suggests that the duplicate detection code path might be involved.
