Do you know how to make ChessBase create 600,000 files from one 4 million game
file where each player gets his own file of PGN games?

E.g. you want all J.R.Capablanca games to be put into a file called
JRCapablanca.pgn and you want all R.J.Fischer games to be put into a game called
RJFischer.pgn, etc. for all of your players for all of your games.

I doubt that any tool can do it right now.
