I don't normally do this, but I have to give big kudos to RRRChive. We just performed a test data migration of around 3 million records, and without taking anything away from migrator, it choked on this one. RRRChive came to the rescue and performed magnificently.
Thanks Misi for this great tool; it really made my job easier. I am now confident that when we go live to production, we will have a success story. I highly recommend that you take a look at their tools, it may be the best 10 minutes you spend :) Oh and the configurator is AWESOME. Too easy!
