I'm using the expression list that is in the blacklists download
(/porn/expressions) in my porn destination group. It is 788
characters / 221 words (as counted by MS Word). The one you've
posted is 135 characters / 57 words (as counted by MS Word).

Subject: Expression Length


I found an example mp3 type media blocking expression in the
squidGuard
archives and have added to it just by grabbing all the formats that
windows
media player recognises.

My question is, is this expression too large and do you think it
would have
a huge performance impact.
