Dear Maintainer, Dear Jeff, I'm having the same issue.
I have an old firewall running Wheezy, applying the firewall take less than 30 seconds. I installed a new server in Jessie, now it takes more than 60 seconds to apply. To confirm the issue I did few more tests on my old servers: - with the wheezy-backports kernel (3.16.7-ckt25-2+deb8u3~bpo70+1) I have the same issue (applying the firewall take more than 60 seconds), - with an old wheezy-backports kernel downloaded on snapshot.debian.org (3.16.7-ckt25-2~bpo70+1): I have no issue (less than 30 seconds to apply). Jeff, did you had to build your own kernel to fix this issue? Ideally, I would like to avoid this solution if possible. Thanks. Regards, Thomas
