How you define rules to the database affects system performance:
  • Generic rules for commonly used directories produce many verifications, resulting in a greater system load.
    For example, protecting /usr/lib/* causes every action in the system to be checked by
    PAM Server Control
    . To improve performance, avoid using generic rules for frequently used files.
  • Deep hierarchies of users and resources require system loads to obtain and check all dependencies. To improve performance, avoid deep hierarchies in the database.
