Long list of Untrusted

Post by Ikari »

Hey,

I'm slowly marking lots of useless 3rd party sites as untrusted. I'm starting to have a bunch though so a question arise: Will it slow down browsing or browser startup or noscript startup ?

I guess only browser/noscript startup would really be slowed, and only if there was like 10K untrusted sites.

So even with 500 the speed impact would be negligible, right ?

Just curious.

500 shouldn't matter, but if you're starting to have issues, you could test it out by exporting your NoScript options and doing tests with and without a large blacklist.

You might also want to try putting your list into your Hosts file.

Ah yes, the hosts file. It's more bothersome to edit but I'll keep that in mind as plan B :)
