The 5000 lines in a URL table are definitely much faster than a regular 
expression, but with this relatively simple regular expressions you will not 
see much difference.
Regular expressions can consume quite a bit of CPU and memory resources and 
therefore the recommendation is to keep the total number of regular expressions 
below 500.

will that have a performance hit if I have multiple IP blocks and use 
expressions on them, comparing to one IP per line in the alwaysdeny/domains 
file?

for example if  I have 5000 IPs from those netmask-ed ranges, I will need 5000 
lines in alwaysdeny/domains and probably 50 lines in alwaysdeny/expressions, 
which one will be better then?

Thanks,

    ufdbGuard has no configuration option to include a range of IP addresses as 
URLs in a URL table.

    However, in your example you can add an expressionlist to alwaysdeny to block 
10.2.0.0/16 <http://10.2.0.0/16>.
    The expressions file contains one line:
    ^10\.2\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+(/|$|:)

        I need block a range of IP addresses(e.g. 10.2.0.0/16 
<http://10.2.0.0/16>), so far I had to add them to alwaysdeny/domains one IP 
per line which is very tedious, can ufdbguard support
        ipv4/ipv4list netmask or a iplist file directly, like it does for the 
"source" section?
