How many hands are we talking about, which pokersite?
Anyway sooner or later the speed will be sth. like 20-40 Hands/second

I dont know how many hands there is,,guessing about 4M,,does it makes difference what site those are (PS and FT)

I personally think Stars is the slowest, FTP is in the middle and Party is the fastest. But that is not an official statement

You say 4 Mio hands -> Should be about 40 hours.

I would recommend to import only some packages in a run.
