[PLUG] IPtables vs .htaccess

[frankhunt]

Which method of blocking large numbers of IPs is the least consumptive 
of system resources?  I have been using IPtables for several years but 
am curious as to whether it is the best way to go when blocking hundreds 
of IPs - like maybe for ALL of China and/or Korea for instance.
