OK.
There are basically 3 ways DNS queries can be answered – authoritative, 
recursive, and cache.  I assume then he means recursive and cache?  As opposed 
to something like a DNS proxy in a router which just queries another resolver 
but caches the answers?

I assumed he meant DNS cache.

I don’t understand how the caching server is going to help with CDNs.  
Actually, with so much Internet content now being either dynamic HTML or 
streaming, I wouldn’t think caching would be worth it, unless you are talking 
about something like a Netflix OpenConnect appliance.  Maybe you can cache 
software updates, I’m not sure about that.

Geographically close CDNs. I want to make sure we are getting content from 
Illinoisish rather than california for netflix, since all that matters is 
netflix

  For performance, look at queryperf which I think is provided by ISC/bind. 

  I'm not sure what you mean by "we are getting good CDNs and the like," though.

    Im bringing live our first caching server today. Is there a good tool for 
comparing queries between DNS servers. 
    Im not all that concerned about speed since we are so small there wont be a 
huge amount of benefit I would think. Im primarily wanting to make sure we are 
getting good CDNs and the like
