Well, I'm glad you suggested that as I've just tried it and it has
dramatically improved my performance. As I mentioned we have a very high
amount of traffic on port 53 and not all of it is actually DNS!  If you
have a better managed network you might not encounter this issue.

Additionally, I'm still trying to get the file extraction by magic
number feature to work.  I think the issue is that suricata is expecting
the 4-series libmagic/magic.mgc that ships with the file utility and
current one on my system is 5-series.  Could I request that you add
5-series libmagic support to suricata?
