Wireshark-dev: [Wireshark-dev] Multithreaded filtering

Hi,

I've seen a few old posts regarding making Wireshark multithreaded and
how difficult it would be to make the protocol disectors
multithreaded.  Why not just make filtering multithreaded for
analyzing the traffic after it has been captured.  That way applying
post capture filters doesn't take so long.

Thanks,

Jeff
