I liked the 16 byes, and now we can have only 255 keys per rule. :)
Hmm, that wasn't my intention. rule.token_count is a short so it should be
good for 64k. You'd hit the line buffer limit first.
Ah, you are right, it's a short. Yeah, even with 255 we would hit the
line buffer probably. :)
I get now with: "shrunk to 81012 bytes tokens (6751 * 12 bytes), 68009
bytes buffer". Maybe we should check the duplicates in the strings and
tail of strings while parsing, we can get rid of another 20kb, I
guess. :)
Not sure about the O(n^2) scanning though. I tried a trie, but it's 100+
lines of dense C and needs a hundred K or so during parsing - it just seemed
like overkill. It did shave ~15K off my ~25K string buffer. I can send it
if you like.
Hmm, maybe it's not worth, and may cost too much at bootup. But if you
have it working, I would like to see how much it is here. But don't
bother if it's too much effort, we will probably not apply that.
I had another go and got the index down to ~25K for my installation. So
I guess it's worth having a look at.
