+That is a significant move of the goal posts. I don't know if that even
+involves importtree being slow anymore. 
+
+You've apparently got a lot of stuff going on in the directories used by 
+that script, NTFS, acrypt, some kind of removable drive, ...?
+
+I tried to adapt the script to a simple test case that I can run, but had
+to leave all that stuff out, since I don't know anything about it. The
+script I ran is below. 
+
+I ran it with 10000 files, and the timings of the syncs were:
+
+1. 0m0.154s  
+2. 2m5.719s
+3. 0m3.088s
+4. 0m15.240s
+5. 0m34.297s
+6. 0m1.244s
+7. 2m7.648s
+8. 0m35.378s
+ 
+So I have not reproduced the (new) problem, #5 and #8 are not slow.
+
+Your 5th sync taking a long time is particularly strange because the only
+difference between it and the 4th sync is that `git annex wanted` is
+configured. But, `git-annex sync` does not do anything with that
+configuration unless it is syncing content. That made me think you might
+have annex.synccontent set in gitconfig globally. It seems to me that would
+also make the 3rd sync slow, but I suppose you could have a complex git
+config that sets it for some repos but not other ones or something like
+that.
+
+Otherwise I'm out of ideas about how to reproduce your problem.
+
+I'll reiterate that it would be helpful to see the last output of the sync
+command before it does whatever is being slow.
