WGE - A high-performance web application firewall library(C++)

Existing WAF solutions often become performance bottlenecks when handling large-scale traffic. We discovered ModSecurity's limitations in high-concurrency scenarios within our commercial product, leading us to build a truly high-performance WAF engine from the ground up. Test Case: CRS v4.3.0 without TCMalloc - ModSecurity: 4,010 QPS - WGE: 17,560 QPS - Performance Gain: 4.38x Test Case: CRS v4.3.0 with TCMalloc - ModSecurity: 4,927 QPS - WGE: 18,864 QPS - Performance Gain: 3.83x
