default kernels almost always do), then set LOAD_HELPERS_ONLY=Yes in

<para>Don't set optimization option 8. For example, if you currently

set OPTIMIZE=31, then change that to OPTIMIZE=23. Optimization
|

option 8 combines identical chains which can result in a smaller

ruleset, but it slows down the compilation of large rulesets.</para>
