This is definately something I would consider "off-line" processing. In
most cases, CF is not suitable for these types of tasks, espcially if it's a
task that you'll have to repeat on scheduled basis. If this is a one-time
event (are you sure? :) ) then you can way the time for development vs. time
of processing.
one time operation?
Developing it in CF is probably the quickest solution. Won't be the
quickest app in the world.
recurring task?
Do it in C, or even better, VB. It would be quicker to develop this in VB
than C, and the performance increase that C would give you is probably
negligible. Writing an offline recurring task like this in CF would be a
mis-use of your CFServer's resources.

Subject: the big export
I need the fastest way to export 100s of 1000s of text
files into a database. I need each file in a a new row like this:
file1name, file1content
file2name, file2content
CF is too slow for this, what can I use?
Thanks,
-=Michael.
