snort pkt process speed

[Balla István <balla.bmf () gmail com>]

hello,

what happens if snort cannot process the packetflow fast enough?
E.g.: if a fully used 100Gb/s link connected to snort. does it discard or
drop the packets?

is there something about the packet process capabilities in documentations?

thanks
