[GRASS-user] Question on v.in.ogr and large files - why low cpu-load?

[wqual]

Hi list, 
as written before, v.in.ogr is sometimes quite slow when importing very large 
shapefiles. However, when I look at the ressources of my computer (using 
top), v.in.ogr and (in this case sqlite) only use 5 - 6% of the cpu-load and 
also not much memory.
I am not a specialist for these questions, but I would expect, that an 
increased usage of the ressources would speed up the v.in.ogr. Maybe a 
question for the developers? 

Best regards,
Wolfgang
