junos dynamic-db

In JunOs not so long ago (9.4 or 9.5 - too lazy to look) appeared dynamic-db .
feature interesting and useful - Primarily for prefix-lists. The idea is that some parts of the configuration specific to bgp (prefix-lists and policy-statements) can be taken to a separate config file, and from the ground there of reference. This greatly reduces the size of the main config, speeds up the commit, rollback history does not clog filters, auto-update. We have a prefix-lists - it is about 90% of the config, commit instead of a couple of minutes was held for about 20 seconds.
However, as it turned out, while there are not going smoothly. :-(
first thing encountered - you can not watch this the most dynamic config, but to go in there and tell the show, which is very inconvenient for scripting, and privilege requires configuration changes when only viewing. Had do op script show-dyn-conf.slax , showing the dynamic config (however, the problem with the privileges it does not solve).
And about a month of using dynamic-db from him without any apparent reason сорвало крышу (MX480, 9.5R2.7). :-(

had to renounce the use of dynamic-db. At least not yet. :-(
