This module provide SQL script to copy node content between databases.
You may need this module when upgrading your older* Drupal installation

Sample code:

INSERT INTO Drupal7_db.node
(nid, vid, type, title, uid, status, created, changed, comment, promote, sticky, language, tnid, translate)
SELECT
nid, vid, type, title, uid, status, created, changed, comment, promote, sticky, language, tnid, translate
FROM Drupal6_db.node ;

Pro:
. you can jump Drupal versions (ie: update from 5 to 7)
. high perfomance for large data migrations
. no data normalization required

Cons:
. this only works for nodes and related entities. Not for settings, views, etc
. you need db command line access to source and destination database

No code is available at the moment.
