Is there a pool limit using irules to redirect?

We have one virtual server and rather than adding new virtuals for each pool, we are using an irule redirect for new versions/types of servers within their own pools. I just got another request to add...
application delivery
dev
devops
iRules

I have a similar setup where I have one virtual with close to 300 pools (each pool has a different server) and it's working just fine. That is it it's simply doing redirects to the correct pool. The only time you have to be concerned about CPU is if you are doing some encryption/decryption or regex type function in the irule.

 

 

Hope this helps
