You could try this: edit the file modcp/moderate.php, and around line 385 make this change (add the part in red):

	WHERE $sql AND thread.threadid IN ($threadids)
	ORDER BY thread.lastpost LIMIT 100
");

then you won't see them all at the same time, but once you delete a batch you should be able to go back and see the next batch. Also, I just picked 100 arbitrarily, you may be able to increase it and still have it work.
