[rules-users] Insert Fact Speed bottleneck

Hi Drools team, I wrote a Drools application for my company, which evaluates clinical claim processing rules. That is, it checks current medical claims against the patient's historical claims. It appears that 95% of the run time is dedicated to inserting facts, which is presumably when it propagates through the RETE graph, since firing the rules takes no time. But it seems like it's not fast enough. I made a rule template, which by trial and error of moving the conditions around, is optimised. I'm averaging 310ms, and need it to be under 170ms for it to be viable. Is there any not-too-technical guide to optimisation somewhere? (alpha and beta-nodes scare me a bit).
