Adguard Home configuration

Hello all,
I use the GL.iNet GL-MT6000 router in the configuration with Adguard Home, from what I checked it consumes quite a lot of ram memory, is this because I added more blocklist filters?


Run top or htop from ssh, and it'll tell you.

AGH consumes 14% of the RAM.

There’s a bunch of instances running theough

is much, what influences, if I add more filters it consumes more?

Yes, but if they'd all consume 14% each, you'll end up at > 100%.

The more lists, the bigger the memory foot print.

Keep in mind /tmp is located in RAM too.

It absolutely will use more resources to have more lists selected. Limit your choices to small medium and large, and lose a few extra large lists

I honestly cannot identify everything that consumes in htop, there would be something else that consumes resources unjustifiably?

Yes, it seems that if I remove the big lists, I gain RAM memory

as a recommendation, which list should I use:oisd, hagezi Pro or filters only from AGH?

oisd (biggest one) should be enough

If you can live without the AGH UI, you can use the light(er) Openwrt specific adblock addons to achieve the same functionality, hopefully using less RAM.

Should be able to use the same block lists.
