从列表中删除一个项的成本与后面要删除的项的数量成正比。在前半部分的条目符合删除条件的情况下，任何基于单独删除条目的方法最终都将不得不执行大约N*N/4个条目复制操作，如果列表很大，这可能会非常昂贵。

A faster approach is to scan through the list to find the first item to be removed (if any), and then from that point forward copy each item which should be retained to the spot where it belongs. Once this is done, if R items should be retained, the first R items in the list will be those R items, and all of the items requiring deletion will be at the end. If those items are deleted in reverse order, the system won't end up having to copy any of them, so if the list had N items of which R items, including all of the first F, were retained, it will be necessary to copy R-F items, and shrink the list by one item N-R times. All linear time.

因为任何移除都是在你可以使用的条件下进行的

list.RemoveAll(item => item.Value == someValue);

我会这样做

using System.IO;
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;

class Author
    {
        public string Firstname;
        public string Lastname;
        public int no;
    }

class Program
{
    private static bool isEven(int i) 
    { 
        return ((i % 2) == 0); 
    } 

    static void Main()
    {    
        var authorsList = new List<Author>()
        {
            new Author{ Firstname = "Bob", Lastname = "Smith", no = 2 },
            new Author{ Firstname = "Fred", Lastname = "Jones", no = 3 },
            new Author{ Firstname = "Brian", Lastname = "Brains", no = 4 },
            new Author{ Firstname = "Billy", Lastname = "TheKid", no = 1 }
        };

        authorsList.RemoveAll(item => isEven(item.no));

        foreach(var auth in authorsList)
        {
            Console.WriteLine(auth.Firstname + " " + auth.Lastname);
        }
    }
}

输出

Fred Jones
Billy TheKid

 foreach (var item in list.ToList()) {
     list.Remove(item);
 }

如果你将".ToList()"添加到列表(或LINQ查询的结果)中，你可以直接从"list"中删除"item"，而不用担心"Collection was modified;枚举操作不能执行"错误。编译器会复制“list”，这样你就可以安全地删除数组了。

虽然这种模式不是超级高效，但它有一种自然的感觉，并且对于几乎任何情况都足够灵活。例如，当您想要将每个“项”保存到一个DB，并仅当DB保存成功时才将其从列表中删除。

我的方法是，首先创建一个索引列表，这些索引应该被删除。然后，我遍历索引并从初始列表中删除项目。它看起来是这样的:

var messageList = ...;
// Restrict your list to certain criteria
var customMessageList = messageList.FindAll(m => m.UserId == someId);

if (customMessageList != null && customMessageList.Count > 0)
{
    // Create list with positions in origin list
    List<int> positionList = new List<int>();
    foreach (var message in customMessageList)
    {
        var position = messageList.FindIndex(m => m.MessageId == message.MessageId);
        if (position != -1)
            positionList.Add(position);
    }
    // To be able to remove the items in the origin list, we do it backwards
    // so that the order of indices stays the same
    positionList = positionList.OrderByDescending(p => p).ToList();
    foreach (var position in positionList)
    {
        messageList.RemoveAt(position);
    }
}

我将从一个过滤掉您不想保留的元素的LINQ查询中重新分配列表。

list = list.Where(item => ...).ToList();

除非列表非常大，否则这样做应该不会有明显的性能问题。
