#18 RELAP-7 and MARMOT take too long to load in Model Builder

[Anna Wojtowicz]

When setting the MOOSE app in the MOOSE Model Builder, RELAP-7 and MARMOT trees take very long to load (5-10 seconds); RELAP-7 takes the longest. While this is happening, the message "ICEFormEditor Message: State changed to dirty." is slowly being printed to the console (for each block). This is odd because the BISON YAML file is about 35k lines longer, but still loads quicker.

It's not clear if this is a front end or backend issue; probably will need to perform some sort of memory profiling to figure out where the problem is.

Alright, this is a of consequence of the MOOSEModel.mergeInputIntoYaml() method being so daggum complicated. In particular, when I comment out the entire else if block starting at line 1220, the loading time instantly improved dramatically.

The section in question would come into play when a top-level block was read in that wasn't found in the YAML file. It would try to discern if the unmatched block is left-over from the last loaded YAML tree (in which case, toss it out), or is a custom block created by the user (in which case, keep it).

This was a duct-tapey fix I implemented when we were running into trouble with the "Output" vs. "Outputs" block names not matching (due to our YAML files being out of date), and can be really inefficient. I can try to fix it up to be more efficient, or we can just do away with it altogether as the BISON team did say there should never be any custom top-level blocks.

Given what the Bison team said, I vote to dump it.
