It seems something beyond smart matching algorithms is needed to really make it in the job search/recruiting space. Unless eHarmony has found such a breakthrough, they don't have any advantage but sheer weight. As someone else mentioned, smaller == faster. I wouldn't spend anything above what was already planned on marketing or whatever, you'll certainly not win that race when they have a fuckton of money available.
