I've downloaded the Austrian extract and have been running the import for a few 
minutes. I'll report back if it succeeds or fails. I should have plenty of RAM 
(a blade with 16GB available).

I've seen a number of forum posts about using the -C (cache) flag during 
imports. How much does this actually help and what are some good metrics to use 
when setting the value?
