To speed up a bit, one can delete the index for 'msgid' in the post table, and reindex that field with a smaller size. It is quite easy to do with myphpadmin. Just set the size of the index to 10 or 15. That might(according to mysql manual) improve some speed.

Could you give us some more information on this as well as anything else that can speed the import process up... So far I've just been tossing SCSI drives at it and simply waiting LOL
