I ran into the same issue. I'm not sure why it's so slow but I contacted them directly and they bumped my import to the head of the queue. I would recommend doing that. The site may be slow but at least their support is responsive. They also had some serious UI slowdowns for the first couple of days but it is better now. I've also noticed that the feeds don't update as rapidly, but that will probably improve over time and it's mostly only noticeable when compared directly to Google Reader.
