Which Ad Block lists are more effective and which ad blocking test do you recommend?
If you want to, you can reevaluate the added lists after 14-30 days using this tool (not supported by PiHole devs) to audit which lists are actually used. I’ve run this tool and discovered that several lists I added weren’t doing anything at all (If you need help with this tool please use the GitHub page to discuss).
- Is there a script/program to test dns resolution for a list of domains?

New PiHole Owner - How many blocklists?
There's also a script which a reddit user (I forget whom) has created that you can use to analyze which of all the lists you have are redundant or unused. Here's his git: https://github.com/yubiuser/pihole_adlist_tool

I have ~4M domains on blocklist, how to determine what is blocking what's not?
The pihole_adlist_tool by yubiuser is probably what you are looking for. It will give you an overview of which of your adlists are actually used and which ones have never provided a single block. It will even automatically deselect the unused adlists for you if you chose so.

Folks who run pihole, how often does it interrupt things that shouldn't be (if at all)
I would suggest you using Synology DNS instead of PiHole. like this one. https://github.com/steventblack/ad-blocker I had a better experience with it.
