Suricata 3.x & Intel Hyperscan on pfSense
-
Bill,
Is there any chance of bringing Intel's Hyperscan regex engine to pfSense now that Suricata 3 supports it?
It seems to be in the FreeBSD Ports repository.

While I take the marketing claims with a grain of salt, it appears to bring big performance improvements to Suricata.https://www-ssl.intel.com/content/www/us/en/communications/hyperscan-suricata-solution-brief.html

Yes, this is the plan when the next 3.x update hits FreeBSD ports.
