Decoding Room Information about Blocks in Room

I am currently using Capasha's way of decoding room information (http://pastebin.com/9uFrYtYp)
And it works amazingly! The only problem is: With big rooms (I have a 200x400 room) it takes a very long time before it's done...

Is there a different / better way to decode the room information?
Usually I would make the code myself, but I also have no idea how the code works... It just does.

Here is all my code if you need it:

(Coded in C# in Visual Studio 2010)

Here is the code.
Capasha's one is a lil bit old i think.

*WARNING*
To complete the code, write in the case "init":

desBlocks(m, 20u);

Thank you!

EDIT:
Is there also a way of doing this so that the code can be used forever? Because now if EE is adding a block with custom variables (rotation etc.) the code doesnt work anymore

Btw that isn't faster, using a threadpool doesn't make it any faster it just makes it skip over it basically so it can do other things, if you try to access the array that has the blocks in it it will throw and error or it will just say that there isn't anything there because you haven't set it yet. Long story short that way isn't any faster.

You could jump to i+4 if you don't know the block. But it would only work for regular blocks...
Or you could just create a external list that you open and which contains the number of parameters to retrieve for each ID. So that you just have to update the list, and not recompile the code every time.

If you don't need the live level, you can use my web-based API which gets the world as of its last save.
Everything is still a bit rough, if your request is invalid it returns HTTP Status Code 400 at least.
http://api.everybodyedits.info/WorldDat … dt06vvya0I (just replace the ID with your own).

You'll need Json.Net to deserialize it to a "World" object, just use WebClient's DownloadString to get the data.
Also, you'll need to reference System.Drawing to get Point.

Here's the classes:

public class World         {             public string Id, Name = "Untitled World", OwnerId, Owner;             public int Plays, Width = 200, Height = 200, Woots, TotalWoots;             public bool AllowPotions, Visible;             public Color BackgroundColor;             public List<WorldData> WorldData = new List<WorldData>();         }          public class WorldData         {             public int type, layer, rotation, id, goal;             public string target, text;             public List<Point> locs = new List<Point>();         }

You can directly get it directly from playerIO, but to increase traffic on lrussell website I'll keep it for me
