(important) nit-picking: this is not "debug mode", but tells you about the
internal counters. This is a huge difference, because stats have a very
light overhead, whereas in debug mode things are slowed down to one tenth
of the usual performance (or even lower).

I would even try to set this higher, maybe 10000 - but that's probably not
a big difference (but worth a try).

looking at it, I need to mention that "contains" type of filters are very
expensive, because we need to search multiple times inside the string. If
you can avoid them, that is a huge win. From what I read so far, this is
probably the culprit here.

But one more thing: is it possible that one message falls in different
categories? If not, you can stop processing (via the "stop" directive) as
soon as the message is processed. This will save you evaluation of all the
other filters... Again, this can be a huge difference (especially if you
filter for the common case first).
