I only have one real nit on this patch (below).  Except for that here
are some more random thoughts for potential follow ups.

I think we might benefit from a even more granular measurement, e.g., in
some of the tests I was doing a while ago build_datapaths() was also
taking up a significant amount of time.

Some more interesting ones to measure are in
build_lswitch_and_lrouter_flows(), the loops that call
build_lswitch_*_by_od/op().  I don't know however how we could deal with
the parallel case though.

Thanks,
Dumitru

A bit of a nit: would it make sense to not duplicate these in both
northd versions and just add them to a (potentially new) common header file?
