Re: Poor performance using snort 2.8.x in inline mode

[carlopmart <carlopmart () gmail com>]

I think that the problem is with network. CPU is idle at 95%. Memory is using at 
50% and I use e1000 nics on this host.

Putting snort without inline mode (but using the same rules) throughput is very 
very acceptable (11 MB/s). I am testing it copying a 100MB file over snort 
bridge ....
