Question relating to RAW programmes

[eysha]

I have the FZ200 and i prefer to shoot in RAW, however, i am trying to find a decent programme that will convert the RAW files to Jpegs without too much hassle.
I download adobe's DNG converter but it takes the 14 meg RAW file and converts it into a 46.5 meg file which takes forever as i shoot a lot of photos then i have to save them as jpegs one on photoshop CS2.
Is there and easier way? a quicker/easier/better programme i can use?
I don'[t care for the disk that came with the FZ200 and have tried Infraview so what do you recommend - how do you convert your RAW files?

I use Corel Paintshop Pro. You can try it free for a month.
