Can anyone please advice the best way ( without impacting the system performance much ) to delete duplicate rows from a table > 1 TeraByte?

A ) FastExport all rows and then FastLoad /Multiload (with ignore Dupes).

B ) Multiload Delete - Not sure how the SQL would like since we cannot use RowID's.

C ) SELECT DISTINCT or SELECT .. WITH GROUP BY and then INSERT into a SET Table.

Any other suggested options? Ideas/Suggestions/Thoughts welcome and appreciate. Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Raj
