I'm pretty sure the solution I posted above is the fastest unless more
assumptions are made.
Most of the solutions listed require multiple searches over the
elements or require sorting neither of which are necessary.
dup3[v_] := Join @@ (ConstantArray[#1, #2 - 1] & @@@ Tally[v]);
v = RandomInteger[{1, 100}, 10000000];
dup3[v]; // Timing ==> 0.031
sordups[v]; // Timing ==> 2.87
