A certain pattern of picklist data causes in an issue in the match checking logic of the Merge tool, and results in an out-of-memory condition in the application. The configuration that causes the issue relates to when:

• The parent picklist entries for the legacy picklist and the MDF picklist do not match;
• A child picklist entry matches between a legacy picklist and a MDF picklist;
• The matching child entries also have matching child picklist entries (grandchildren);

Our Engineering Team is improving Validation Check & Merge tool and a new version is being planned to be on the Q3 2019 release (b1908).
