In the Import Tracks Tab, the Change Settings button controls the Compressor/Limitor and Normalize processing. These are factory disabled.
However, if you have enabled them and have a slow computer (1GHz would be slow here), then importing and processing songs will take longer. If you want maximum speed on importing, disable Compressor/Limitor and Normalize. However, then your songs will need to be amplitude adjusted between them, requiring you to "operate" your system more.
Also, using a USB-1 port versus a USB-2 port for a USB CDR drive will take twice as long. Using an IDE drive will be the fastest you can run.
We are working on a change to make importing faster.
