What is cufwAaicBypassSnortBusyCount?

This Counter64, in Packets, counts packets that bypassed inspection because Snort was too busy to handle them. An admin uses this to detect when the inspection engine is overloaded rather than down entirely, which points toward a capacity or performance issue rather than a crash. A steady climb in this counter during peak traffic hours would suggest Snort's processing capacity is being exceeded and needs attention.
