Default [Snort-users] Snort-DNS lookup question

Hi

When I run Acid.. it takes a lot of time to show up..
I'm guessing its because of the excessive number of
alerts I am receiving. Inorder for me to improve the
speed ... in a little way... is there any way in
snort where I can remove its capability of trying to
look up the DNS to try to resolve the ip addresses it
catches in the alert files. My thinking is that by
stopping this function in snort... Acid wont have that
"FQDN" column that always shows me Unable to resolve
address... thus improving the speed. Please could
someone correct me if I am wrong... or let me know how
to remove the DNS lookup in snort.

Thanks

Clayton
