Not necessarily, If you have a set pattern that is followed, you have other options. Paul is the import specialist and knows the import process far better than I do, so may have some tricks to get urls lined up with where they need to go.
(probably does)
If it was me and i had 10,000 url's coming into
site.com/cats/funny-videos/cat-does-backflip
site.com/cats/funny-videos/cat-catches-bird
site.com/cats/funny-videos/cat-........
Then I would come up with a module to do the work for me.
Something like:
* Catch the incoming url thats about to hit a 404
* search the datastore to see if it matches any known pattern
* redirect to where it should go.
Because writing 10,000 urls by hand would suck. if it was 5 urls a month though, I would go with the "URL Mapper"
