I just created four same-named stacks and ran my suggested handler wrapped with timer commands.
All four were deleted in 67 milliseconds. LC 10.0.0 DP 4.
put the milliseconds into tStart
repeat while "test" is in the mainstacks
delete stack "test"
end repeat
answer the milliseconds - tStart
Ralph's idea to use filter is good too but slightly slower, at (a fairly insignificant) 79
milliseconds:
put the milliseconds into tStart
filter the mainstacks with "test*" into tStacks
repeat for each line l in tStacks
delete stack l
end repeat
answer the milliseconds - tStart

Whoa! No I'm not! There's over 300 mainstacks just from Livecode!
