AdGuard Home has a memory [issue](https://github.com/AdguardTeam/AdGuardHome/issues/4437) at the moment. So when using the url python script with block list that have 100k+ URLs it can cause a memory lockup. So I advise for now use script with limited blocklist at a time and ~~reboot everytime adding a set.~~ 😔
Edited
Even after reboot memory does not get freed. So until AGH gets this fixed use limited blockist
same reason of many urls processing memory for blocking. Same theory as "the more apps/sofwares running will result in more memory", so more ram, more capability of running multiple programs, in this case those blocklists.
