I do too, but as the corresponding webpage states:

Note that this ruleset is written with readability and clearness in mind
so anyone can fathom it. Thus it is optimized for understandability and
not for speed. For a standard workstation or a server with limited
amounts of traffic that won't pose any problem. In an environment with
huge amounts of traffic or where Network Address Translation is used a
more complicated ruleset will be needed.
