1. A method for configuration file management in a network element that executes a plurality of application processes, the method comprising: upon initialization of the network element, reading a first configuration file that is in a character-encoded format from a non-volatile memory device;for each application process, translating the first configuration file into a plurality of non-character-encoded configuration files;storing the plurality of non-character-encoded configuration files in a dynamic random access memory;configuring each application process based on the respective plurality of non-character-encoded configuration files;modifying, in real-time, at least one of the non-character-encoded configuration files; andmerging each of the non-character-encoded configuration files into a second configuration file that is in a character-encoded format. 2. The method for configuration file management in the network element according to claim 1, wherein the character-encoded format is an American Standard Code for Information Interchange (ASCII) format. 3. The method for configuration file management in the network element according to claim 1, wherein the non-character-encoded format is a binary format. 4. The method for configuration file management in the network element according to claim 1, further comprising: storing the first configuration file in a non-volatile memory in the network element. 5. The method for configuration file management in the network element according to claim 4. wherein the non-volatile memory is a flash memory device. 6. The method for configuration file management in the network element according to claim 1, wherein the step of translating the first configuration file into a plurality of non-character-encoded configuration files is done per object type. 7. The method for configuration file management in the network element according to claim 1, further comprising: requesting, via inter-process communication, that each application process create a temporary copy of the respective non-character-encoded configuration files. 8. The method for configuration file management in the network element according to claim 1, further comprising: forwarding the second configuration file to a network operator for editing. 9. The method for configuration file management in the network element according to claim 1, wherein the step of merging occurs at substantially a same time as the execution of the plurality of application processes. 10. A network element for configuration file management in a high-availability, embedded system, the network element comprising: a non-volatile memory device storing a first configuration file in a character-encoded format;a dynamic random access memory; anda processor configured to execute a plurality of application processes, read the first configuration file upon receiving an initialization signal, for each application process, translate the first configuration file into a plurality of non-character-encoded configuration files, store the plurality of non-character-encoded configuration files on the dynamic random access memory, configure each application process based on the respective plurality of non-character-encoded configuration files, modify, in real-time, at least one of the non-character-encoded configuration files, and merge each of the non-character-encoded configuration files into a second configuration file that is in a character-encoded format. 11. The network element according to claim 10, wherein the character-encoded format is an American Standard Code for Information Interchange (ASCII) format. 12. The network element according to claim 10, wherein the non-character-encoded format is a binary format. 13. The network element according to claim 10, wherein the non-volatile memory device is a flash memory device. 14. The network element according to claim 10, wherein the processor translates the first configuration file into a plurality of non-character-encoded configuration files per object type. 15. The network element according to claim 10, wherein the processor is further configured to request, via inter-process communication, that each application process create a temporary copy of the respective non-character-encoded configuration files. 16. The network element according to claim 10, wherein the processor is further configured to forward the second configuration file to a network operator for editing. 17. The network element according to claim 10, wherein the non-character-encoded format is a decimal format. 18. The network element according to claim 10, wherein the non-character-encoded format is a hexadecimal format. 19. The network element according to claim 10, wherein the non-volatile memory device is a hard drive.
