What operating system are you using, and what software are you using to do the import? What specificially are you trying to import? If you perform a sequence of 'insert' statements, then that can be time consuming - its better to incorporate them into one 'transaction' - sqlite bundles the operations into one big operation. This is better IO wise - it performs far less writes to the disk, etc. But understanding the methods you're using so far would be helpful.
