Filtering:
- We have a string with per packet protocols, could that string be saved and used in filtering - don't dissect the 
packet if it does not contain the filtered protocol.
If you're referring to the "frame.protocols", that is, unfortunately, computed as part of the process of dissecting the 
packet, so....
But we do run trough all packets on the first pass, subsequent filtering could benefit.
