+@jgoerzen if you want to take a look at the sql, see
+`Database/ContentIdentifier.hs`. `getContentIdentifierKeys` is the query
+that it's running on each file. I'm not really sure right now if the 
+persistent schema in there actually creates an index that is used for that
+query. persistent's documentation of indexes is lacking and I may have
+misunderstood that uniqueness constraints result in indexes being created.
+
+Dumping the database shows this, which really doesn't seem to have an index
+after all:
+
+       CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS "content_identifiers"("id" INTEGER
+       PRIMARY KEY,"remote" BLOB NOT NULL,"cid" BLOB NOT NULL,"key" BLOB
+       NOT NULL,CONSTRAINT "content_indentifiers_key_remote_cid_index"
+       UNIQUE ("key","remote","cid"));
+
+May need some raw sql to add it, like:
+       
+       CREATE INDEX cidindex ON "content_identifiers" ("cid");
+
+Also, I re-ran the 150000 file sync benchmark with `getContentIdentifierKeys` 
+disabled and it took 29:56.78, so 25% faster.
+
+That gives me the idea for an optimisation -- it could check if the
+database is empty at start and if so, avoid calling that at all. (It also
+maintains a map in memory which will still allow it to detect duplicate files.)
+Speeding up initial imports of a lot of files, but not later imports of a lot
+of files is kind of a cop out, but..
