**Your software** My Mautic version is: 4.4.1 My PHP version is: 7.4 Following my post on [duplicate contacts being created](https://forum.mautic.org/t/how-did-happened-duplicate-contact/24575/16) I am now trying to run the Mautic:contacts:deduplicate and it is going soooo slowly, like checking 1 record every 2 or 3 seconds. and I have a power server running the following: 8 Dedicated CPU 64GB RAM. My DB size is just over 100K. Any ideas on why this is going so slow, it will take a week to deduce this at the moment 😃
