Bug description:
[Impact]
When using iproute commands with a large number of network devices (virtual ethernet adapters, etc) iproute performance becomes much slower.
[Test Case]
1) Download attached 'make_fake_routers.sh' and 'parse.py' scripts.
2) ./make_fake_routers.sh 3000 ip > results
3) ./parse.py results
You should be able to graph and clearly see a performance improvement
with the fix than without it.
