First solution is the one I use almost all times, and moving facts from a 
session to another is far less costly than propagating facts for rules that 
will never be fired...

The second solution could be great too, but I am not sure that it will cut all 
propagations. If you have this :
rule "unused"
when 
    exists ControlFact("some_group_id")
    MyFact(att == value1)
then 
    ...
end
I am prety sure that MyFact(att == value1) will generate a node which will be 
updated at each MyFact insert/update/retract, regardless of the first condition 
is true or not ... but may be I am wrong ...


Globally, my advice is : if you can partition your rules in independant groups, 
do it really and create independant sessions (especially if performances become 
critical).

It depends on your problem, but yes.. it could be more efficient,
except for the fact that you need to move all the objects from one
session to the other.
Another alternative is to use some kind of control fact that only
activate the second group of rules when the first group has been
evaluated.
