Saving many objects in db with Entity Framework (EF) takes too long

Hi asp.net,

I am reading a large number of objects from .XML file. It takes too long right now, ie. for 12 objects takes 1 minute to save them into db with Entity Framework (EF).

As it is right now Saving 1200 objects takes 100 minutes which is not acceptable.

How can I make this saving process faster (optimized)?

Any suggestions?

Best Regards
