(search time is _the_ huge tradeoff for linked lists. In theory the memory isn't fragmented. In reality memory is fragmented so while searching through the list you are maximising cache misses. Arrays are faster in insert/delete because of search time) |

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Indexing | Θ(n) | Θ(1) | Θ(1) | Θ(log n) | Θ(log n) |
| Insert/delete at beginning | Θ(1) | N/A | Θ(n) | Θ(log n) | Θ(1) |
| Insert/delete at end | Θ(1) | N/A | Θ(1) amortized | Θ(log n) | Θ(log n) updating |
| Insert/delete in middle | search time + Θ(1)[1][2][3] |
N/A | Θ(n) | Θ(log n) | Θ(log n) updating |
| Wasted space (average) | Θ(n) | 0 | Θ(n)[4] | Θ(n) | Θ(n) |
