[Django]-How do I perform a batch insert in Django?

These answers are outdated. bulk_create has been brought in Django 1.4:

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/models/querysets/#bulk-create

Here is way to do batch inserts that still goes through Django’s ORM (and thus retains the many benefits the ORM provides). This approach involves subclassing the InsertQuery class as well as creating a custom manager that prepares model instances for insertion into the database in much the same way that Django’s save() method uses. Most of the code for the BatchInsertQuery class below is straight from the InsertQuery class, with just a few key lines added or modified. To use the batch_insert method, pass in a set of model instances that you want to insert into the database. This approach frees up the code in your views from having to worry about translating model instances into valid SQL values; the manager class in conjunction with the BatchInsertQuery class handles that.

from django.db import models, connection
from django.db.models.sql import InsertQuery

class BatchInsertQuery( InsertQuery ):

You might get the performance you need by doing manual transactions. What this will allow you to do is to create all the inserts in one transaction, then commit the transaction all at once. Hopefully this will help you: http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/db/transactions/

No it is not possible because django models are objects rather than a table. so table actions are not applicable to django models. and django creates an object then inserts data in to the table therefore you can’t create multiple object in one time.
