Question regarding adding my own block list. Which option to choose?

grammatonclerick
I am running 9.3

Should I add the long block list to:

1) Web Protection ->WebFiltering -> Policies -> Default Content Filter Action -> Websites ->"Block Theese Websites" add as Regular Expression

OR

2) Web Protection -> Filtering Options -> Websites -> "New Site"  and Recategorize.

If 2  then can I just copy paste an expression list?

i.e. 


^https?://([A-Za-z0-9.-]*\.)?0tracker\.com/

^https?://([A-Za-z0-9.-]*\.)?1-cl0ud\.com/

^https?://([A-Za-z0-9.-]*\.)?100im\.info/

    I don't think it makes too much of a difference, but RegEX is said to use a little bit more CPU and RAM when being processed. It depends on how often the entries are processed, and the size of your list.

    I think it's best to test for a bit with each method, and if you notice a huge change in CPU or RAM usage, to see what works best.
