SquidGuard is said to be faster when you use a large number of patterns. A few thousand url_regex ACL entries in Squid will slow things down a bit. But there are other ACL types like 'dstdomain' which speed up things even if used directly in Squid. And good luck filtering on blacklists. IIRC a few thousand domains are registered every day. You will have to add a lot of blacklist entries regularly. ;) > Would like to see some nested ACL's is any body has time to help a > little on that as well Just ask.
