Drupal: imports thousands of rows from a mysql database. Easy?

Question

I need to import large databases into Drupal CCK nodes.

Let's say I have 1 million rows to import. Each row is a Drupal node, and each field is a CCK field. (this is the mapping that I mean).

Is this something risky, or do you think I can easily import data into my new Drupal installation?

Could you offer me tools or modules for import? (the source database is Mysql .. I have to do some intermediate step, for example, export the database files to text files .. or ..?)

thank
