I know this might sound a little bad, but i would use Perl or an editor that supports regulars expresions to convert the data into insert statements and after that i would use a database administration tool (ex. myCC) to insert the data, you could put some statements before doing the inserts to disable foreign key checks and others things to speed up the process, but in your case i think this would have no effect in the speed.
