    I have a big wordpress export file of 14MB but when i try to change server and upload the file, both Internet explorer and Firefox keeps crashing/timing-out after about 15min of catergory/user creation work

    Any way around this?

    Big dump. Nice and easy software to use and is really easy on the server:

    Read the docs before you give it a shot. Guaranteed to work!

    Yeah bigdump is really great, i used it not long ago when i had trouble importing 2 directory databases and it kept on timing out.

    Once i used bigdump it was done within a second.

    Yea, bigdump basically chops the query into parts for you and fully automatically. It's great and I have used it on far too many projects where the database imports are huge. Saved my life so many times ;)
