I am wondering how long will it take to finish syncing for a new cluster use

```auto
lotus daemon --import-chain https://fil-chain-snapshots-fallback.s3.amazonaws.com/mainnet/complete_chain_with_finality_stateroots_latest.car

```

and I downloaded the complete\_chain\_with\_finality\_stateroots\_latest.car to my nodes,it still take a couple days and still not finished!  
Any one can give me some advice?  
So appreciate !!!
