Fuzzy Matching is slow

I'm matching 300K addresses against a table of 80k addresses.

 

All columns that arent needed have been removed.

 

It seems slow. Is there anyway to improve performance? I've 8 gb ram on this machine.

 

It could be a few hours at the rate its running on this machine. Would it be much faster on the service?
