Hi, I wonder what the performance impact of the entries in /etc/hosts really is. What is your experience? Google tells me a lot of hosts running FreeBSD but I could not find anything regarding the hosts file itself. I use hosts for filtering all unwanted content on my personal machine. I run currently 6.2. Thanks! Erich
