      Hi guys, here leaning this excellent piece of software.
      My question is, in the dnsbl feeds, is import the position based on the size?
      Example, I had a list with 150,000 entries and the 2nd list 500,000 entries.
      Does it matter who is first?
      Thanks for your time.

        it doesn’t matter.

        pfBlocker merges your lists into one big list, removing duplicates and anything in the whitelist.

            If your system doesn't have enough memory to proceed thru the TLD process, placement of Groups will impact the Whitelisting.

            Once the TLD Domain limit below is exceeded, the balance of the Domains will be listed as-is. IE: Blocking only the listed Domain (Not Sub-Domains)
            TLD Domain Limit Restrictions:
            
                < 1.0GB RAM - Max 100k Domains
                < 1.5GB RAM - Max 150k Domains
                < 2.0GB RAM - Max 200k Domains
                < 2.5GB RAM - Max 250k Domains
                < 3.0GB RAM - Max 400k Domains
                < 4.0GB RAM - Max 600k Domains
                < 5.0GB RAM - Max 1.0M Domains
                < 6.0GB RAM - Max 1.5M Domains
                < 7.0GB RAM - Max 2.5M Domains
                > 7.0GB RAM - > 2.5M Domains
            

            2.4.5-RELEASE-p1 (amd64)
            Intel Core2 Quad CPU Q8400 @ 2.66GHz 8GB
            Backup 0.5_5, Bandwidthd 0.7.4_4, Cron 0.3.7_5, pfBlockerNG-devel 3.0.0_16, Status_Traffic_Totals 2.3.1_1, System_Patches 1.2_5
