Good question. Indeed the URI has to be resolved with each query, update, delete.
If the ContentProvider supports it, you may try whether you are not faster 1) by deleting several entries at once: using delete on the whole table, with appropriate selection clause 2) by inserting several entries at once using bulkInsert (if the content provider supports this): http://code.google.com/android/reference/android/content/ContentProvider.html#bulkInsert(android.net.Uri,%20android.content.ContentValues[]%29 Finally, if you have so many changes to do, do they really have to go into a ContentProvider? Maybe you are better off with a private database: "If you don't need to share data amongst multiple applications you can use a database directly via SQLiteDatabase.
