Re: HOME_NET Limit?

[Matt Kettler <mkettler () evi-inc com>]

Well, I don't know about a parsing limit, however each added subnet is a 
serious performance impact. Last I heard, the devels were recommending not 
going over 10 or something on that order... 316 is probably totally 
unreasonable for snort to handle.
