does anybody know of any references or documentation on the effects/affects of lots of apache mod rewrite rules affecting web site loading times or server loads?

I Know you are not basic, Incase you havent come across this link, then

Basic URL Rewrite .

Wordpress uses Rewrite rules well, there is a class they have built, Might be this mailing list could be of help.

I've used rewrites for quite some time now. :-D

It's just with the expanding of one of my websites, I now have over 100 (106 to be exact) rewrite rules. I had to put in a new 1gb stick of ram to help with website speeds. The site is not very database intense, so I know it's not mysql hogging resources.

I'm looking for something that shows the direct relation between apache mod rewrites and server load/website speed.

Thank you for the links, though!
