100k hands in PT

[Bipolar00]

Mods please move if this in the wrong forum.


Recently I had ~100k to 125k hands emailed to me by pokerstars.

Last night i unzipped them into the pokerstars file where my HHs are saved. Then i imported them into PT.

I am not sure if this is even the proper way but i was tired and admittedly somewhat careless.

They have now been importing to PT for ~15hrs.

I have tried changing the affinity in CTRL ALT DEL to realtime, and also high. Nothing seems to help.

I have a pretty base model dell with less than 1gig of RAM. Is this delay to be expected or am i simply asking too much of my machine?

open pokertracker
--> utilities --->filesplitter

and split the file in handhistory files a 100 hands. otherwise the import will be incredible slow.
if that doesnt work try this.
pat is very helpful.

Thanks for the link. I cross posted there.

I have already started the process of moving this monstrous file, so i am unsure whether ur suggestion is still applicable.

Anyone know?

Thanks in advance.

I've always split the textdocs manually. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

This thing is still importing. I feel like such a [censored] noob. Is it pointless to abandon it now? Or would it save time to just shut down and retry using the file splitter?

just be patient and let it run overnightor something.

Interesting. My old 200k+ database of HH's was lost last spring after my hardrive died. Would pokerstars be willing to email all of those ancient hands if I requested??

They were only able to recover as far back as 1-11-2007.
Thanks for the feedback guys. Much appreciated.


I let it run for 23 hours and noticed my clock was stopped, so i decided to scrap the time wasted and use the file splitter in PT after rebooting. I still have the unzipped files on my desktop, but am unsure how to get them from there into PT (whattanoob)

I am not sure what to do now tho. If anyone can help me with this i would greatly appreciate it. thanks
