I think, since you will be using ACID and SQL, that the best new feature is
the database schema, which should make the acid reports much faster and upgrades
easier.
I had a database with about 33000 alerts and snort 1.7 (that is, schema=0),
and the distinct query for the current day took about 30s. But I don't have the
numbers on the new schema yet, should take a month or too to fill the new
database to the same number of alerts...

I'm also using acid from CVS, and it's really good and fixes some bugs in
the released versions.
