do it
also disable javascript and webrtc, check i am an advanced user and block third party scripts and frames too
Eli James
higher memory usage would be more noticeable than processing time
Ethan Bell
As far as I can tell, nothing. Doesn't gobble up more CPU or RAM from what I've seen.
also thisAnd make sure to block global 3rd party scripts and frames

gorhill is leading you all down the garden path.
Too many fillter lists will slow down browsing load speeds and use more cpu and ram.

Network filters have very little impact. Cosmetic filters can slow down browsing on phones.
Brody Martinez
yes it will but the point is it wont be as noticeable as you think
Chase Russell
That depends mainly on your specs or if you're on a desktop or mobile browser. on a modern desktop system you won't notice a difference either you have 800.000 or a few millions filter lists, on a mobile however the impact would be severe.

backup current settings to a file, and try it with all filters on, and whatever else you want to try.
Thomas Sanchez
some filters would be redundant, for example
Fanboy’s Annoyance List includes the Social Blocking List
other than the tiny amount of extra traffic, I see no cons
Cooper Reyes
It doesn't matter what i think or not, go and add every list you see here and watch the results on page loading speeds. firebog.net

Um kid my phone has 8 processing cortexes and 4 are at almost 2.4 GHz with the rest at 1.9 GHz
It's faster than a MacBook BY FAR
Logan Moore
I have a ton of custom filters and performance has increased if anything on my phone from not loading all the extra shit on webpages that you don't need.
Gavin Rodriguez
If the list is sorted then binary searching a match is log2(n)
Log2 of one million is literally 20 comparisons! But yeah, connecting to some random ass webservice that tracks you while trying to sell you more XL Dragon Dildos through ads would probably be faster.

why use obscene amount of lists when you can just forbid the 3rd party stuff
Asher Wright
I can tell you don't know how this works. Why would you not do both. You're still vulnerable 1st party. And some sites you will need to noop some domain(s) in order to use it. When you noop a domain you apply filters. Using 500k filters is not going to hamper performance.
Jason Barnes
so block 1st p too
Jack Adams
I do, but you have to noop some domains...
Do you remember what that means?
Ethan Lopez
yeah but loading ads is infinitely slower than blocking lists
ghostery is by far the fastest blocker out there, but i dont trust them enough to use it over ubo
Carson Lopez
Is this better than adneasum?
Cooper Roberts
>is not connecting to ads, trackers, and possibly malware better than using your resources to click ads multiple times
