    Hi all,

    I installed pfBlockerNG using this guide onto 2.4.3-RELEASE-p1:

    https://www.linuxincluded.com/block-ads-malvertising-on-pfsense-using-pfblockerng-dnsbl/

    I have a shed load of RAM (8GB) and I would like to use it to keep a large DNS cache.

    I have fiddled with most General DNS Resolver (unbound) options in the Advanced tab, but records always expire.

    I would like the Prefetch to keep my cache 'live' so all DNS queries are answered immediately, 0ms by pfSense.

    Any ideas?
