on the other hand you could also use polipo to block certain https
connections which might be a much larger win performance wise and
improves privacy if done right (many webbugs nowadays use SSL)
Curious - how much extra memory is used for a https tunnel going through
polipo? I would think there is no point in "storing" more than a few
KB of data per connection in buffers?
