I thought that the main benefit of these script was speed when
saving/restoring rules (someone please correct me if I'm wrong). I don't think
your ruleset is big enough to notice the difference.
If you're having trouble using iptables-[save|restore] then you can create
your own script: it's just a matter of preference.
