Well it seems like bumping the stream4 memcaps made some difference.
Just keep bumping it by 100megs each run and see if things get better.
After that we'll need more detailed information from perfmon and
rule_perf to figure out what is eating up cpu and ram.
Cheers,

I let it run longer to get information after the memcap setting.
Dropping packets like crazy, especially when starting snort and at peak
network usage time (morning and noon).
I've done everything but rule profiling. Do I need a box with more
horsepower?
