Can use low-level datastore and iterate over batches:
binSize = 1000;// or smaller if needed < 30 sec timeout
DatastoreService datastore =
DatastoreServiceFactory.getDatastoreService();
Keys only select and delete:
javax.jdo.Query q = pm.newQuery("select key from " +
entityKind.getClass().getName());
q.setRange(0, binSize);
(List<Key>) q.execute();
ds.delete(keys);
Or slower entity-by-entity delete:
FetchOptions fetchOptions =
FetchOptions.Builder.withLimit(binSize);
com.google.appengine.api.datastore.Query q = new
com.google.appengine.api.datastore.Query(entityKind);
PreparedQuery pq = datastore.prepare(q);
List<com.google.appengine.api.datastore.Entity> results =
pq.asList(fetchOptions);
for (com.google.appengine.api.datastore.Entity result : results) {
com.google.appengine.api.datastore.Key key = result.getKey();
datastore.delete(key);
}
