### Does uBO download filter lists at launch?
No, uBO does not download filter lists at launch, it just uses filter lists currently cached in its storage, and typically will even load from a memory snapshot created in the previous session to ensure quick readiness.
Filter lists are updated in a lazy way in the background **after** launch. Once the filter lists have all been updated in the background, they are reloaded into memory. Subsequently a memory snapshot will be created to ensure fast load time next time uBO is launched.

### Is a manually-installed uBO better and more performant?
No. Placebo-effect.
