[QUOTE="Decopi, post: 750044, member: 67091"] Hi [USER=51905]@Evjl's Rain[/USER] , thank you for all your updated tests. Using your dropbox-test-sample, I achieved 25/25 with Pi-Hole. However and to be fair with your test, I used the following computer-on-board tools: K9 (minimum configuration) + Avast AV Free (Web Shield)... and also achieved 25/25 with your dropbox-test-sample. That's all, not hosts, neither add-ons. Both, K9 and Avast AV have the less system-impact, with the highest rates of blocking. As far as I know, both are the best combo considering browser performance (RAM, CPU, battery-life, and browser speed). Not to mention that both will work at system level, watching not just 1 browser but 100% of all computer traffic communication. For privacy and ads, a tiny/lightweight 3rd-party blocker does the best job, at almost zero system-impact. I still believe that blocking rates with system-impact, is a zero-sum-game .
