Rhythmbox hangs for some time while importing Android Phone

Description
Am am trying our Rhythmbox 0.12.8 to manage my Android phone (HTC Droid Incredible) which as a 16gb card with about 6 gb of music on it.
When I drag an album over to the Droid portable icon, it takes a bit to put the album on it (I think it is doing conversion, which really isn't necessary for this Linuxy device) after which it will start importing the music from the device. It gets into the 1100s and then seems to hang about 2 songs from the end (say 1168 of 1170). The program will then freeze for some time. After about 10 or 15 mins (I'm sorry, I haven't put a stopwatch to it as I start doing other things while I'm waiting for it to unfreeze in the background), it will finish whatever it is doing and then I can use the program again.
Needless to say, this doesn't speak for the usability of this program for this purpose. I plan on sticking with Rhythmbox as it is tried and true and I'm a little concerned about supporting Mono/Banshee at this time.
Please tell me what else I can do to help improve this bug report in hopes of improving this aspect of Rhythmbox. Overall I am liking what I see. I would just like to see this one little niggle resolved.
Kindly, Nathan
