One of the fastest ways to save a list you must apply the following code

context.Configuration.AutoDetectChangesEnabled = false;
context.Configuration.ValidateOnSaveEnabled = false;

ValidateOnSaveEnabled = false;

Doesn't detect change tracker

You must add nuget

Install-Package Z.EntityFramework.Extensions

context.Configuration.AutoDetectChangesEnabled = false;
context.Configuration.ValidateOnSaveEnabled = false;

context.BulkInsert(list);
context.BulkSaveChanges();
