Replace (and remove) characters from URIs?

Im trying to setup an irule that will convert "\" into "/" and also remove redundant "/" (turning "//" into "/") for HTTP::uri.     What is the recommended way (performance wise) to do these two...

in case not using data group.

e.g. 

[root@ve1023:Active] config  b rule myrule list
rule myrule {
   when HTTP_REQUEST {
   set uri [HTTP::uri]
   set cvt_back_slash [string map {\\ /} $uri]
   set rm_double_slash [string map {// /} $cvt_back_slash]

   log local0. "$uri -> $rm_double_slash"
}
}

[root@ve1023:Active] config  cat /var/log/ltm
