Ya, thats a huge ruleset, and is having in some cases more of an impact on performance than expected. Don't run it if your boxes are on the edge of load. That said though, I'm going to work to pair down the number of IPs in those lists, go for more just the biggest offenders in each category... Matt James Lay wrote:

As I look at the ruleset I can see why though..almost a 2 meg text file..yikes!
