Django 1.4 will add bulk create capability (see https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/models/querysets/#bulk-create). Prior to 1.4 you can use the development trunk level code, or you can find other libraries that provide bulk insert (see for example http://ole-laursen.blogspot.com/2010/11/bulk-inserting-django-objects.html). http://www.caktusgroup.com/blog/2011/09/20/bulk-inserts-django/ mentions the kinds of speedups you can expect with using a bulk insert technique vs. creating objects individually with the ORM.
