What were you getting before this change? (by the way, thanks for the suggestions guys)
This number should increase as your import runs. Also, import speeds will naturally drop as the db gets bigger due to it taking longer to update indexes - it should level out at a certain point but when you first start a new DB your speeds will be blazing.
One other thing, how big are the hand history files? And, what site? I have found something with Stars mined hands from some of the services - they combine all tables into 1 file which means many more players which = way more db updates. For example, a 1000 hand party poker mined sample might have 50 players in it from the same table but a 1000 hand stars sample with multiple tables merged in the same file might have 200 players in it.
Most people I have heard back from are telling me this version imports very fast compared to previous ones. That being said, I still have a bunch more things to do for importing. The goal with this version was to streamline a bunch of things and to fix the issue that some people were having where they were getting < 10h/s
