Does it slow down as it goes? Or is it a constant 20 seconds per?

One thing that might be a factor, if it is slowing down as the imports grow, is InDesign's need to keep an Undo cache in case, after you've run your script, you want to undo each of those actions one at a time.

You can get around this by saving the file back over itself every 50 images or so (you might want to experiment to optimize the number; you don't want to do it too often or the time spent saving will negate the time saved).
