It’s just resolving dns queries. What types of resources do you think it needs? Also, newest revision of rpi (model 3 b+) is quad core 1.4ghz with gigabit lan.

Also, newest revision of rpi (model 3 b+) is quad core 1.4ghz with gigabit lan. Overkill for a project like this.
- Jaruzel 8y ago> with gigabit lan Although, tests have shown it's not really gigabit in speed, but it is faster than the old 100mbit NICs previous Pis.
- Fnoord 8y agoIIRC the bus of the NIC is shared with USB which is USB (v2) which is 480 Mbps or about half of 1 Gbps. If you care about throughput, don't use the USB ports when you care about it. But either way, 100 Mbps is more than fine for a Pi-Hole. I'd worry more about any possible latency overhead.
- hrktb 8y agomostly nitpicking, but it's not gigabit lan; the interface is limited by internal bus to 300Mbs It doesn't matter if you dedicate it to this single use, you'll see more lag if it's also doing file serving stuff in the background for instance (also because of CPU use, not just networking)
