Hi Geoffrey,

I ended up starting an interactive job on a compute node.  The import still took about 10 minutes.  It finally did finish importing though.

I've seen many users abuse the login node of Kraken, running multiple jobs, and sometimes it's multiple users at the same time that slows the node down.  Have you tried another login node of Kraken, since there's 11 to choose from.
