That makes sense, JR. In this case, unfortunately, the images
(3.8k new photos) were in three separate 'trees' representing
memories of trips done over the years by 3 different members of
the family, placed in subdirectories per each of their separate
criteria: dates, places, camera used, etc., and colliding with
photos already present in the gallery, uploaded years go by a
different user, 100-200 of the photos being also in the newcomers'
batch... all in all, the dupes ended up distributed in 56
directories... after detecting the collisions via script, we had
a boring manual session deleting 1-10 images from each folder.
Oh, well... what doesn't kill you, makes you stronger.
I could have deleted the new folders as you say, or restored a
backup and detect/delete the dupes via script ahead of uploading,
but by then too much time had passed and we were not sure if
anything else had been changed, so... we just soldiered on.
Thanks,

Sorry, I would not know where to download it from... it came to me --I think-- back in gallery2 times... but here is the zipped folder: I hope this helps?
The admin/modules page says:
"Duplicate Image Module, version 8, When images are added/modified, this module will update a table in the gallery database to contain the MD5SUM of the fullsize image. It will add an item in the admin/contents menu to check for duplicate files, then display them in a dynamic album for you.<br /> | By J.E. Nash"

Excellent! I am glad that dupcheck works and that you may give
it another lease in life. It has served me well if not too
frequently over the years, and it is back to working now that I
reduced manually the number of dupes. It is probably that 64k
table limit that you mention, that was killing it.
The problem happened upon batch-adding images through 'Server
add', containing many dupes between the images added and those
already in the gallery. The process became slower and slower
until it stalled. You could see the counter going up fast, then
slower, then not increasing at all. And after closing that
session, if you asked for dupes (through menu
'Admin-Content-Gallery Photo Duplicates'), that is when the crash
I reported at the beginning of this chain happened ("Something
went wrong!...").

Thanks, Brad. New version installed and briefly tested. All
looks good. I am not going to add dupes on purpose, but if
anything goes amiss, I'll report it here.
Best,
