Reshape large sparse matrices

Hi, I need to reshape large sparse matrices into vectors by concatenating the rows. Large in my case means square matrices up to Nrows=20000, the density of such matrices is very small, with only about Nrows non zero elements. However, when I try to use reshape to build the corresponding vector (predefined to be sparse also), I don't get any error but the calculation take very long, which seems to me strange since in fact only a few values are non-zero. The only explanation I have for this is that reshape does not treat sparse matrices as sparse. So, is there any way to do the same faster? I have a workaround but it is not so fast and more importantly it is not at all elegant.

The following code, which reshapes a large sparse array, is very fast on my machine:
N = 20000;
s = speye(N);
rs = reshape(s,[N*N,1]);
I second Jan's suggestion to supply a code snippet, if you can.
