Summary: Efficiently match IP addresses against IP ranges

Description: 

This module provides you with an efficient way to match an IP address against
one or more IP ranges. Speed is the key issue here. If you have to check several
million IP addresses, as can happen with big logs, every millisecond counts.
If your way to check an address involves a method call and some temporary
variables, a lot of time is burnt. In such a time-critical loop you don't
want to make subroutine calls at all, as they involve stack operations.
