We're running into this issue on 8.1.13. We had been using a Covid-19 EDL that mined all the new domains being bought up and sitting idle until the time is right to start using them for malware delivery. We have an 820, so the list capacity is currently 50,000 URL's. Well, the domain list is already at 50k+ so our Dataplane memory is at 100%, and we can't commit. I'm working with support, and I even truncated the list to 1/2, and I still can't get it to commit. I have a move to 9.0.7 on my radar, and that will give us 100k URL support, so maybe I'll pull the plug on that. It seems that the 9.x code should be stable by now. We're active/passive so I am going to see how our passive handles the 9.0.7 version. There is a known issue with UserID not working properly until *both* firewalls have been updated, so that is causing me a little bit of worry, since we can't quickly test things until both FW's have been upgraded, so that makes for a longer possible maintenance window. When I set this EDL up a month ago, it was at about 13k domains - it's scaling up almost as fast as the medical cases! Maybe I'll put in a request with our SE to have PAN consider a special URL category for these domains.
