I never had trouble reporting and acting on somewhere between 100K and
200K objects in various states with oldcmp ... never needed a script.
Usually what I do is export CSVs from tools like that and then I import
them into a SQL database and merge it all together and find out what I
need and then export that out and pipe it into another tool. 

Thanks,
Brian Desmond
