The next example is used to creat a high-performance nested and filter condition. Here, +it is first checked if the message contains a string "error". If so, the message is forwarded +to another ruleset which then applies some filters. The advantage of this is that we can use +high-performance filters where we otherwise would need to use the (much slower) expression-based +filters. Also, this enables pipeline processing, in that second ruleset is executed in +parallel to the first one.
