When I use Spatial Join Tool, the progress has been stuck at 4%

[LianghaoHuang]

Hello, when I use the Spatial Join Tool for analysis, the progress can't move forward from 4%. My data volume may be a little large (connecting individual buildings' information in 20 cities to each city shape), but when I waited for a whole day, the progress did not increase at all. How should I solve this problem?

Hey @LianghaoHuang 

This post here has a suggestion that may help:

Would it be possible to split the dataset up into smaller chunks? It may just be that the amount of calculations and weight of the process may be too much for the tool to actually complete unfortunately, from what you've mentioned it definitely seems pretty large.
