Slow rules with dev build

[LorenzoC]

I am using dev build 1.3.5b.2831.
Why this rule:
||youtube.*^$third-party
Is marked as "slow" (snail icon)?

[Hubird]

I'm not sure why it is slow but without the third party switch the snail icon disappears

** EDIT **

Also happens with

Code: Select all

||jscount.com^

Adding any sort of option to the rule causes it to be marked as slow in the filter composer.



Minefield 4.0b12pre (2011-02-19)

I guess you stepped on a mine in the minefield

||youtube.*^$third-party

By the way, you can safely remove this part of the filter.

Yes, I know. I tried any combinations of characters before giving up and concluding it was a bug.

FYI, I use the following:
||youtube.*^$third-party
For removing youtube videos from blogs I follow.
I don't get why people embed the videos instead of just posting the link to youtube.
Anyway, removing the "*" before the "^" embedded videos aren't blocked.

I've got other 3 or 4 rules with "third-party" and of course they are "too shrt" - "slow" as well.
Are we sure it is minefield instead of ABP dev build?

Anyway, removing the "*" before the "^" embedded videos aren't blocked.

I meant to say that you can safely remove " ^ " as well. And get something like this:
||youtube.$third-party

This appears to have been fixed with a Minefield update.
