Check out this post for an example of solving the same problem using "findclass" instead of "switch". Not sure if it will improve performance, but it's worth trying:

Since you want to switch on the entire URI, instead of just the host & part of the URI, just replace these 2 lines:
set req "[HTTP::host]/[getfield [HTTP::uri] "/" 2]"
set redir [findclass $req $::TURL_List]
with this one:
set req "[HTTP::host]/[getfield  "/" 2]"
set redir [findclass [HTTP::uri] $::myRedirects " "]
