Hello Simon, congrats for such a great piece of software.

  I was wondering about the case where we have an external hosts file 
with a list of ad blocking address-to-domain mappings.

Now when dnsmasq starts up

1. does it read the whole file once and possibly adds the mappings to 
the dns cache so we have to specify a cache size similar to the number 
of lines in the file plus a number for our approximate external dns queries

or

2. it doesnt and it reads the file for every single one dns query so the 
cache size is only for external requests?


Thanks
