Is there any other way i can do it without stressing the CPU ? Yes. Go through the file and remove any domains that do not need paths to be matched. With porn sites your are likely to find A LOT. Those domains can be put in their own file and a much faster dstdomain acl used alongside the now much smaller regex one. Last time I recommended this to someone, another user posted a useful script to automate the splitting process. Amos
