Snort limitations

Hello


I want to discuss here about how far can we trust snort to secure our
network. Have snort some limitations ?

I have tested snort for a couple a weeks. He detects attacks when we have
normal traffic. But When we have a huge traffic like 2000 pak/ sec , he
make a big delay to scan all the traffic and detect the Intrusion. For
example,  i can have an attack now and he will report it in 10 or 15 min.

So what are the Limits of snort to detect attacks?

Thank you
Ayoub
