THe problem is in the prune users option in the backend it only seems to do it in around 1000 at a time. Then I have to do it again. This is really time consuming is there a better way ? I've heard running direct database commands is risky.

You would need access to your php.ini file in order to change max_input_vars to something larger than 1000.
