Extra Thorough Immigration at Schiphol now?

I arrived at AMS with BA at the D-pier, and waited for almost an hour in line for immigration. The queue stretched up past the escalators into the departure hall, and area below was packed with people. I have always been able to get through immigration/customs at AMS in a flash, so this came as something of a surprise.

Is there some specific threat immigration is looking for, or are immigration officials in the Netherlands simply becoming more strict?
