Re: Snort-devel Digest, Vol 107, Issue 19

Here is my understanding of snort++ multithreading feature:

Snort++ processes each input packet source on a separate instance by
binding a new analyzer thread to a freed cpu core providing load-balancing
across threads with a common snort configuration . But there cant be
multiple threads per single Packet source or single interface.
