Batch remove

To add items to a list in bulk, or remove them in bulk. Well to do that you can use SPLinq, Server Object Model and … web.ProcessBatchData, which is the most effective. I did an experiment today. I created 1000 tasks in my task list three times and removed all items in three different ways and took time. First I put 1000 items with ajax and listdata.svc:

function pad(n) {
   if (n >= 10000) return n;
   if (n >= 1000) return '0' + n;
   if (n >= 100) return '00' + n;
   if (n >= 10) return '000' + n;
   return '0000' + n;
 }
var s;
var counter = 0;
var title = "task "
function foo() {
   counter++;
   if (counter > 10000) {
      window.clearInterval(s);
   }
   else {
      var value = {};
      value.title = title + pad(counter);
      createNewTask(value);
   }
}
s = setInterval(foo, 200);

Then I ran three different scenarios. Here is the resut for VMWare machine Windows Server 2008 R2, 4GB RAM, SharePoint 2010 SP1:
