The messages above are independent of the SnortSnarf run time. 
SnortSnarf's run time is mainly dependant on how many alerts you give 
it to process (the number in your input file/database minus those you 
exclude by using an input filter), how much RAM you have, and your 
CPU speed.

The messages are actually warnings from perl, not errors.  Perl 5.8.0 
(or later) is just giving a warning that 2 parts of the SnortSnarf 
code using something which may be removed in future Perl releases.  I 
plan to change that in the next release.  You should be able to 
suppress these warnings by removing '-w' from the first line of 
snortsnarf.pl.

Best regards,

  Jim
