Can anyone tell me what sort of conversion speed I should be getting?

I've seen no complaints re really slow conversion times in the forum but....

I'm using v1.3.6 and finding that a 1.5 Megabyte .IMP file is taking up to 8 hours to generate the html file. I see similar times on my dual core at work and my single core machine at home.

By comparison the deimp.exe tool that only produces text files runs in a minute or less although I realise that it has less to do since it's not rebuilding the html.

Am I doing something wrong, or is that the sort of conversion time I should be expecting? Is there anything I can do to speed that conversion up a bit?
