Rules Profiling
===============
If Suricata is built with the `--enable-profiling-rules` then the ruleset profiling
can be activated on demand from the unix socket and dumped from it.
To start profiling ::
suricatasc -c ruleset-profile-start
To stop profiling ::
suricatasc -c ruleset-profile-stop
To dump profiling ::
suricatasc -c ruleset-profile
A typical scenario to get rules performance would be ::
suricatasc -c ruleset-profile-start
sleep 30
suricatasc -c ruleset-profile-stop
suricatasc -c ruleset-profile
On busy systems, using the sampling capability to capture performance
on a subset of packets can be obtained via the `sample-rate` variable
in the `profiling` section in the `suricata.yaml` file.
