hi netfilter team

i have not found a bug, no support is needed and i wont ask you questions
concerning configuration and so.
i rather have a suggestion for a feature that probably could be interesting.
because it dont read your list, forgive me if someone else proposed you
already that idea.

the packetfiltering mechanism works from top sequentially down and checks if
a rule can be triggerd.
for performance reasons, you have to know, what rules get triggerd more
often than others an put
them to a higher position in the rulebase in a certain domain, where the
order of the rules doesnt matter. 
wouldnt it be useful if you can create a domain in the rulebase and count
how often a rule gets triggered 
and put these rules in a optimised order?

just an idea

regards
