I just tried using iptables --list on one of my servers and it took about 4
minutes for it to list all the rules, pausing several seconds between each
batch of lines. There are a lot of rules, but if all those lines were in a
text file it would only take a fraction of a second to cat them. So the
slowness is not from printing a lot of lines to the console.
Is this normal behaviour? Is there a way to make it print faster?
The actual rules were generated by firehol. Using Debian Etch netinstall -
nothing abnormal.
