The more products the slower is the import

Hello,

After importing 700.000 products the import speed dropped dramatically, is this normal ? I’m getting 1 product per second. I test the same import feed and speed is 4X on an empty website server…

Can this be solved ?

Hi!

You may need to use CPU with higher frequency per core, for your database; try using MySQLTuner script; implement database partitioning.

Horizontal partitioning ? And how to implement it ?

You may need help from developers to implement it. They may also advise you on whether it should be horizontal or vertical.
