I find that Mysql is lots faster (see
http://www.andrew.cmu.edu/~rdanyliw/snort/perf/acid_perf.html)
If you are having a hard time with large alerts it is probably the
max_script_runtime variable in acid_conf.php.  This will basicaly stop
the script after x seconds of execution.  I had to increase this value
to 1800 seconds for som equeries to work.

hi snort user,

i've trouble when previewing snort report with acid.
when the attack data is small, acid can show the alert report.
but when the attack data is quite large , acid can't show the alert report.

anybody has any idea how to tuning up this acid-mysql. i'm quessing this is
a problem of memory ,coz mysql needs large memory to query large data.
my memory is 128Mb,with 512 swap and PIII-800.

is there any script to be add to tuning up this acid report , or have u ever
try to change mysql to postgressSQL , is it more faster ?


thanks,
