cc set ips num_instances 1
If there's only one stream of traffic, only a single instance will start. William makes interesting observations about how to configure snort to give the fastest response - sometimes, limiting it to a single instance forces the CPU to run faster, giving better throughput than using two instances. About 20 months ago, BarryG commented, "You can change the number of IPS processes by logging into the console as root and running:cc set ips num_instances 1
to set to one process. '0' would set it back to automatic," which is up to the number of CPU cores.
