rest of the workers, one of them is always getting them duplicated while
the rest don't I don't know why.

I think this explains why the time spent grows linearly with number of
lports. Each lport has its own ACLs added to same LS, so the acl column in
the row gets bigger and bigger. It is likely that the port group
optimization would solve this problem.
