Larg set of csv files need to be inserted into a database?

Use LOAD DATA INFILE . Its better to insert data file by file.

It would be a much better idea to do it file by file. This allows for restart if something goes wrong, also, are all the files identical?

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
