Well, right now there is no way to pause and resume the process but looks like there is a way to optimize it in your case. Please try searching for the partners the following way.
Please select "search by keywords" when you perform a search. Mark "expert options" and click next. Enter your keywords, then select the search engines to use (the more the more partners), remove the limit of 30 partners, then uncheck all ranking factors on step 7 (you can harvest them later) and mark "get complete URLs". Click "Finish" and then it will start searching.
Please let us know if searching that way makes it faster.
