Perhaps we could make a secondary rule-set which excludes the more time consuming rules, and average time consuming rules which aren't triggered very often. Then run the GA again on it to optimize for the reduced rule-set, and put it all together in a "rules-lite" directory. Then sysadmins could trade of accuracy for speed by switching to the lite ruleset. -- Give a man a match, and he'll be warm for a minute, but set him on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.
