  Where are you importing from?
  How large is the import file?

  I’m importing from a txt file allocated from a Squarespace blog. The file is massive, it’s seven years worth of archives from a blog I started in 2007. So far, it’s only loaded up to 2009 and has been stuck for weeks.

  It looks like you did an import using the Movable Type importer, and a lot of your posts have transferred over. I reset the import for you.

  You can try your import again, and duplicates will end up in the trash.
