Hi Chris!
I *assume* (I know what happens when you assume... (-; ) that the host file is not loaded in memory and is processed sequentially so wouldn't having a big host file make its parsing be very very slow?
That's an assumption though...
Somewhat, but not too bad. Some people have had web completely turned off for failing to listen to me. 2 whole deparments have no web access now. Muahahahhahaha....I'm drunk with power!
bofh? (-;
But yeah, I guess if you had 35k listings in host file it could be pretty slow :) Another reason to use squid.
It would be nice if squid could use (SU)RBL though... (-;
Have a nice day!
Nick
