For the past week or so I’ve been working on a signifigant new feature of ged2csv and the genealogy database scripts. Two nights ago I released a new version of ged2csv with the changes and also posted information on the database design.

This evening I completed the optimization of ged2csv’s code. It now takes a whopping 0.15 seconds (previous builds were taking about 2.5 seconds) to process my entire 1.5MB gedcom file!! Just for comparison, the freeware program I was using before I built my own took almost a minute! I’ll post the optimized version after I complete my testing.
