[LRUG] Request for assistance with Rails performance oddity

[Jon Leighton]

I can't think of an obvious answer. Do you have any validations or
callbacks in place, and if so are they doing anything which could be
computationally expensive?

You might try using http://github.com/zdennis/activerecord-import in
your importation script. It allows you to bypass validation (if you
want) and you can also bypass actually creating any instances at all
(just load the values directly into the database).

You could also try using ruby-prof to profile the code and see where
it's spending time: http://github.com/rdp/ruby-prof
