Hi Chris, the Item Attribute Editor just isn't scalable for batch
editing hundreds of items in one shot (everything happens
client-side), unless you happen to have a very beefy machine and
network. We want to implement server-side batch editing
(affectionately called "meat grinders") for buckets, but there hasn't
been any push or resources for it yet.
For now, I would suggest using multiple buckets with smaller payloads,
and/or get a DBA to do batch edits directly in the database. Or lobby
for meat grinders. :)
