Kevin Harder does it again: DotText-CS-Converter v2.1

Just when I thought Kevin had created the greated conversion tool for .Text to Community Server, he drops a new build and completely blows away his previous work. Check out this item in the list of enhancements:

Ludicrous Speed. Dave, from BlogOnTheWeb.Com, was kind enough to let me borrow a copy of his massive dotText database with 3,138 blogs to test the DotText-CS-Converter. Using that, I was able to better locate where some of the remaining performance bottlenecks were and squash them. I converted his blogs using version 2.1 (with referreral and gallery options turned off) in a smoking 22 minutes on my laptop. Converting my own blog now takes 3 seconds (with referrals on)!

With all these improvements in place, it makes me wonder if I should re-import my blog using the new version of this tool. I'd love to have the same post ID's, and being able to do it in a matter of seconds, makes it seem worth the effort. Perhaps with the 3 day weekend, I'll get around to it.
