Folks... you are missing a whole LOT of important points here, any DNS bench should not just take care of hops and all that stuff, there MUCH more parameters to be tested; and if you have a decent pipe then YOUR own, local resolvers will be, in most cases (assuming you know how to setup and tune them) FASTER than any other external resolver, so, imHo this is a NO BRAINED discussion; more, when it comes to DNS and EMAIL, it's usually a good idea to have local copies of "blacklist" zones (e.g. running your own resolver along with your own copy of rbldnsd) to minimize bandwidth usage and maximize performance, then, if we want to carry on some hairdresser discussions and talk about benchmarks, useful to the "average joe" to tune up his P2P home ADSL we may go on with this discussion, but other than that, it's fried air ! Now, to go back ON topic, have a look at http://unbound.net/ it runs on multiple platforms, the performance is right and it's quite ok in case you need a local resolver ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Join us December 9, 2009 for the Red Hat Virtual Experience, a free event focused on virtualization and cloud computing.
