![]() Issue: When the incoming config has say 30K entries of a prefix-lists, current implementation is to schedule the configs to be batched and only after batching the entire config, the processing of the configs take place. As part of batching this config, we perform string concatenation to save all the configs in the buffer which over time results in taking longer time. Ex: Imagine each line of config is 50 chars. With a delimiter of ‘- ‘ we end up adding 52 chars to buffer for each command i.e. 52*30000 = 156K of chars. Strlcat is an expensive operation and every time we strlcat, we have to traverse at end of string to append new char. Because of this, we end up adding extra 6-8 secs for accepting the config. Fix: The idea here is to bring back something similar to the backoff count implemented as part of 20e9a402 (lib: introduce configuration back-off timer for YANG-modeled commands). Essentially we keep a cap of 5000 per batch. So once 5000k config commands are batched, we process them, clear the buffer, set the count to 0 and then continue processing the rest of the config. option1 file has 30K entries of prefix-list Without Fix: root@mlx-3700-20:mgmt:/var/log/raja/frr# time sudo vtysh -f option1 <SNIP>..............
