Suppression only blocks alert output - it still does all the work of the
rule, it just silences it. Disabling a rule is *much* better performance

Hey All,



Topic says it...if using pulled pork or manually removing a sid, which
is better? Does disabling a sid use less cpu then suppress in
threshold.conf? Thanks...just trying to optimize as best I can.
