I understand GoSMS can backup/restore SMS and so can SMS Backup & Restore. However, I have over 15,000 texts and it takes a while to import.

Going through different GB roms, it's possible to just use titanium backup and restore data from the SMS Storage which also houses MMS and contact info I believe.

However, going to ICS requires using SMS Backup or GoSMS which takes forever. Is there a faster way or is this the only way?

Never restore system data between different OS versions. This will only lead to bad things happening. Do you really need 15 thousand messages? If you do then bite the bullet and wait while it restores

guys above are right, you well may run into problems when importing system data into diffrent OS version such as ICS. I suggest to check them out on the PC and save any important data for future reference.

hope it helps...
