Hi Greg, This sounds really good, although I have to say I've never encountered a dumpfile that had such a large task count. I will review and test the patch-set next week. BTW, did you test this on a live system that has such a large task count? Like for example, as I recall, the task_exists() checks that you removed are checking for tasks that were found when scanning the lists, but gone by the time it got around to storing them.
