XF 2.3 vBulletin import VERY SLOW.

Importing from vBulletin 4.1.7. Using the web import (didn’t realize that CLI might be a better option…and can’t switch without starting over).

We are going on 3+ days. Currently importing posts (just shy of 70%). It’s been doing this step for a good 30 hours or so.

Core i7 with 64GB ram. Mirrored spinning disks, so maybe some performance issues there. Any tweaks I can make to help speed things up?

Has been running for over 24 hours. (No errors or other indications that there is an issue…other than the time frame.)

Also, if I were to migrate the finished install to another server, is the best way to export the database to a file and import on the new server? (And just tar up the XF directory tree and cart it over.)

Obviously I would prepare the new server accordingly.

The post import rebuild process has been running for a while. Board is closed, but whenever I navigate around the board (just looking), I see the following errors. (will these go away once the cache rebuilds are complete?)

These did, indeed, go away once the import finalize job was done.

Installed the vB redirect…looks like I need to tweak it a bit…but otherwise seems to function ok.

Thanks for all the help bud far.
