To be clear, in context we are discussing a clean install of Logstash
1.4.0, not suricata or the underlying OS.

I personally wouldn't use a VM for suricata, especially if you are
tapping a gigabit or more of traffic.

Personally, my distro of choice for all HPC and security deployments is
Hardened Gentoo.
