    Hello,
    I have a related question.
    Is it possible to delete a record using a data row, without having to instantiate first a data object via context.objectFromDataRow() (as it is seen in the code example below)?
    If possible, how?
    Thanks in advance,
    Péter

    Peter is right in his assessment that DataContext would cache all its
    loaded objects (especially since they get in a dirty state via
    'deleteObject'). To solve this problem, you may use a loop counter
    and commit and throw away the DataContext every X iterations (e.g.
    every 1000 or so). This will clear the memory.

    On top of that, if you want all 800000 deletes to be processed as a
    single transaction, you may do the above, but also wrap that code in
    a manual transaction:
