Of course the server will go down, too big process. Try to convert it on localhost, and table per table via that Impex shit.

Jason he wants to convert from VB -> IPB not IPB -> VB

I always perform this server intensive operations in localhost and then backup with MySQLDumper and import database to server with Bigdump.

But now that I am using a VPS and can do process in localhost and then get in VPS, kill mysql, replace files, reboot mysql. (although this is not always safe)

vB -> IPB:
