Improving performance by timing each rule?

[OlRoy OlRoy <olroy1212 () yahoo com>]

I'm reading Snort IDS and IPS Toolkit and in it they said that even the fastest computer could be incapable of 
monitoring a 56k link if you're using rules that were poorly written.  Given that performance is important with Snort, 
and that rules affect performance, would it be helpful if Snort had a way of printing rules that are taking the longest 
time to process?  A top 10 list would enable people to see rules might need to be modified or removed.
