I’m trying to import a bbpress 1.0.2 forum to the latest version of WordPress-bbpress (2.4). It has 37,000 topics, which all seem to import OK and look good. But when the importer is importing replies, it seems to stall out around 70,000. It gets slower and slower until it’s a crawl.

I’m wondering if this is due to the wp_bbp_converter_translator table that apparently is created to help translate the standalone bbPress posts into WordPress? This table is now 500,000 lines already. Or is there some other explanation? Is it because I am using bbPress 1.0.2?

You should upgrade your bbPress v1.02 to bbPress v1.2 and then import into bbPress v2.x.
