The quickest seems to be to add Dispatch (sometimes I wonder why
Mathematica does not use Dispatch automatically).
In[1]:= !!r
Print[$Version];
y = {122, 211, 212, 221, 223, 232, 322};
x0=x= Table[Random[Integer, {100, 333}], {10^6}];
Print["x1: ",Timing[x1 = x /. Thread[{122, 211, 212, 221, 223, 232,
322} ->222];]];
Print["x2: ", Timing[x2 = x /. Dispatch[Thread[{122, 211, 212, 221,
223, 232, 322} ->222]];]]
Print["x3: ",Timing[Do[x = ReplacePart[x,222, Position[x, y[[i]]]],{i,
Length@y} ]; x3=x;]];
Print["x4: ",Timing[x4=If[MemberQ[y,#],222,#]&/@x0;]];
x1===x2===x3===x4
In[1]:= <<r
