Comment (by Faziri):

 Allow me to rephrase:
 "This allows for lazy loading of the ruleset, so the problem was solved on
 the filesystem level, but it was not solved on the per-rule level since
 it's still just XML that needs to be parsed."

 It does solve the problem of having to parse a huge XML file at startup,
 thus fixing the RAM usage and startup slowdown, so thanks for that. But
 creating a db without normalizing it and restructuring the data to work as
 a proper db is kind of a hacky solution, it's not proper development. I
 understand it'd be a lot of work to replace the XML rule-parser by an sql
 equivalent, but not doing so is not a solution either.
