The list is a “Drop Off Library” in a Record Center site collection. Â I’m in the development phase and need to be able to add and remove 100k records at a time. Â I added 112k records via the OfficialFileCore object, and they didn’t route b/c I didn’t set up drop off library to use the correct content type. Â So when I go to remove the records, I’m getting errors that crash the system. Â The only script I’ve found was located here:
http://wp.ahcheng.com/2012/09/04/splistitem-delete-best-practise-sharepoint-splist/
This is the only one that will run without crashing the system. Â The other methods I’ve found have tried to load the SPItemCollection each time and it seems to be causing major memory problems. Â Is there a good way that doesn’t require major coding to simply tell SharePoint to “Clear this list of all splistitems”? Â Please?
Look at that article:

It is powershell only.
