AW: [squid-users] --> Squid, SquidGuard and selective filtering

My experience was bad. Using squid 2.3 S? (last year) I tried loading a list
of 100000 urls from a textfile which was referenced in squid.conf. Starting
Squid lasts more than 10 minutes - and then squid died - AFAIK missing
memory.

Now squidguard knows the big url list. And all works fine and sufficient
fast.
