Rule performance profiling question

["Andy Berryman" <aberryman () Cymtec com>]

Does this mean I should turn off this rule b/c of the amount of checks
and zero alerts for it? 

 

Rule Profile Statistics (worst 100 rules)

==========================================================

   Num      SID GID Rev     Checks   Matches    Alerts
Microsecs  Avg/Check  Avg/Match Avg/Nonmatch

   ===      === === ===     ======   =======    ======
=========  =========  ========= ============

     1     7019   3   5  234171143         0         0
80911378        0.3        0.0          0.3

 

 

 

What about this one? Not as many checks, but it takes a while to check
it each time.
