    Adam Neely's youtube channel is incredible. The musicologist (yeah, you can study that) in me loves it because the information he provides is accurate and easy to digest. The musician in me loves his videos because he documents many of

    I'm wondering whether having a huge hosts file could create any performance issues since it needs to get parsed regularly I assume. Does anybody have experience in this regard? What about a basic version with ~100 entries?
