## Selectively Disable Cosmetic Filters
One way to improve performance without compromising security or privacy is to [disable cosmetic filtering](https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Per-site-switches#no-cosmetic-filtering). Cosmetic filtering (aka element hiding) stops ads and other nuisances on the page; it only affects how the website looks. Toggling it off when you don't need it will **reduce the [workload on your device](https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Doesn't-uBlock-Origin-add-overhead-to-page-load%3F) while still blocking unwanted network requests**.

For sites where uBO seems unnecessary (e.g., pages with no ads), [turn off](https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Per-site-switches#no-cosmetic-filtering) cosmetic filtering for the site. This will still protect you from security and privacy risks (network requests) but reduce overhead to page load.
## Optimized Lists
:warning: These lists sacrifice comprehensiveness for speed and efficiency, so expect occasional gaps in coverage over the regular versions. Just something to keep in mind if you run into less blocking than anticipated; it's worth remembering for when you're trying to debug a site.

uBO can handle 300k+ filters, but you might not need that many rules to block unwanted content effectively. You can use some alternative lists that have fewer rules than the built-in ones if you want to save CPU and memory on your device.
[AdGuard](https://github.com/AdguardTeam) provides filters that are [optimized](https://github.com/AdguardTeam/FiltersRegistry#filters-optimization) by removing rules that are rarely used. These lists are designed to be lighter and faster but still maintain high standards for content blocking. The optimization process relies on the [statistics](https://adguard.com/kb/general/ad-filtering/tracking-filter-statistics) of how often AdGuard users apply different rules, which they opt-in to share.
*The rule counts shown below are when compared to their original list in uBO. I've also supplied the link to the iOS versions for reference, but you won't need them running the AdGuard extension for Safari.*
