For certain configurations with deeply nested structures in it ex: some of the firewall rule rule-list configuration, requires excessive time for the tmsh load config file merge operation.
The time for the merge is significantly more than the time needed for load operation.
Configurations containing deeply nested structures.
If you are affected of long load times during merging a configuration file into existing one, you can instead append the config file to the respective bigip_base.conf or bigip.conf file manually.
The tmsh load sys config merge operation performance was optimized. With this optimization the time for merge operation is slightly greater than the load operation.
