Magento: Slow Product Import

Magento: Slow Product Import

If you are trying to import products into your Magento shop and it's taking a long time. Check the following things:
  • If you have a lot of products, then that's the reason,
  • But if you only have a couple of hundred products, and it says you are importing more, then you need to clear your logs. The link below will show you how.

  1. Indeed when a large number of goods or attributes need to be saved, backend works very slow, as each time you save data the system re-indexes the goods through the entire catalog.

    Asynchronous Re-indexing is a solution of this problem. When a product or category is saved it is not immediately re-indexed, but put into a queue. The queue is re-indexed in the background. This greatly speeds up the backend. This mechanism is implemented by using an extension of http://mirasvit.com/magento-extensions/magento-asynchronous-reindex.html.

    Even in case you place online shop even on a good hosting, sometimes the products, categories and attributes are saved slowly. This is due to the need to clear the cache and run re-indexing of stored items.
