There isn't a fast way to look up ( value exists or null ) for every piece of data that we're handed from squid -- a full table scan must be performed for each request, regardless of any indexing in place. With a decent number of rules, it's much, much slower than I anticipated, making it fairly pointless to even do parsing in ragel for speed. Trading some matching features (IPs, for now) for speed, and aiming at just doing good host/path matching at the moment, using CDB for fast host keying. Ripped out all the SQLite work, replacing it with a first round of CDB lookups. Added a ascii rulefile to cdb converter flag. Churning through the requests again! Also, fixed an off-by-one error with line extending.
