How many times are fw rules processed?

[phospher]

Is there any way to see how many times a firewall rule is used?

It would be awesome if I could this so that I could optimize my ruleset moving the most used rules to the top.

Thanks and 2.0 is frigin awesome!

There might be a better way to do this, but…  You could set the rules in question to log packets and then grep the log files after a day or a week or so.

Honestly unless you have hundreds of rules, this is not a productive use of your time…

Exactly, we have hundreds and hundreds.
