What are my options if my data-group has a very large number of key-value pairs ( thousands ) ?i understand thousands is fine.
I assume f5 loads the data-file into memory , but when does this happen ? On f5 startup ? Or the first time an iRule references the class/data-group ?if i am not wrong, in 10.x it is when irule is changed. in 11.x, it happens when external file is updated (through gui or tmsh).
