If performance is your main concern, go for string-type internal data group
To ease your work, take the source file, run some search & replace functions. Make it comply with format of internal data group as expressed in /config/bigip.conf file. Once ready, proceed by merging it to your config with
tmsh load sys conf merge from-file /var/tmp/your-data-group.txt
. Create one dummy data group first if you need reference of compliant format.

The difference is the speed at which you get your work done.
If you do it in GUI, expect 2 hours minimum. If you have a good grasp on Vi or Nano, you can get it done in 5-15 minutes. If you wanted to do 25 redirects instead of 1K+, I would not have recommended this.
