CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

So I've imported 550,000 contacts, and I would like to start duplicate matching.

The problem is, when I launch it from the UI, it doesn't go anywhere. The browser will act as though it is running, but this will go on for hours, before simply stopping with no results and no errors.

I have read a bunch of posts on how the duplicate matching process was optimized, and it seems as though this is taking far longer than it should. My rules (fuzzy) are:

First Name           5
Last Name           10
City                      10
Street                  5   

Threshold            24

Any advice to get this working? These forums have been great so far.
