The computer is a 6-core laptop with 32Gb of DDR4 RAM, however the db is on the secondary HDD which is a spinning disk.

Hi, from the looks of your output here it seems that while the machine has 32G of RAM, only about half of that is being dedicated to the Stardog process. You could try setting STARDOG_SERVER_JAVA_ARGS to something like -Xms12g -Xmx12g -XX:MaxDirectMemorySize=16g when you start Stardog so more of the memory is allocated for use by the Stardog JVM. You should also try setting memory.mode=bulk_load in your stardog.properties file to make the most efficient use of that memory.

Hi Stephen,
After working for some time, it started analysing memory, and never again restarted parsing triples:

Hi Stephen,

After setting parameters as you said, it started to work nicely, but eventually the server crashed. I created a separated topic
