Looks like a big problem. It would be interesting to know where you find the
slowness: is it in the importing operation, or in the actual calculation? I
guess it is in the import, in which case you might rearrange your data so as
to have a single (or just a few) importing process, even if that leaves you
with a huge array to work with. Another possibility (and I'm just talking
through my hat) would be to have your files in Mathematica format previously
Put (>>) there, so that instead of using Import you use Get (<<), which is
much faster. Unless, of course, these files have to be externally changed
often, in which case I don't know what can be done....
