Went from taking 8 hours to import 50 million rows to 45 minutes. Wild. And instead of constantly hitting my disk at 300MB/s the entire time its now ~16MB/s with spikes here and there. Lesson learned: INSERT as many rows as you can rather than a single row insert at a time. Very happy more experienced folks told me I was doing it the slow way, they weren't kidding!
If I parallelize this I bet I can knock it down to 10 minutes or so.
