Excessive resource use whileing doing a 25K record import

[sjonnaert]

I'm hosting EspoCRM on Namecheap and it runs great. However last week I got flagged for excessive resource use whileing doing a 25K record import. It sounds counter-intuitive, but are there any switches in the import panel and/or CRON settings to reduce the resource load on the shared server?

Hi sjonnaert,

Try to enable the Execute in idle parameter in the import settings (at Step 1 of your import). It is recommended if you import a large number of records; import will be processed via cron; the status will be set to Complete when the import process is finished.

I already had Execute in idle set. Does Skip searching for duplicates have a big impact? What about selecting Silent Mode? Are there any CRON parameters that can be set to reduce EspoCRM's server load?
