Cirrostratushi Chris,
The overhead for saving the config to a UCS is fairly low. However, the impact of loading the config can be significant. So ideally, try to avoid loading a UCS on an active unit. You can make the changes via iControl to just the active unit in batches. Once you're done with the batch, you could sync the config to the standby peer.
If you would like more intelligent handling of config sync state detection, you could open a case with F5 Support and describe the improvements.
