Out of curiosity, if one zone is to hold 50 million records, what
would they all be for? I can't even imagine blogspot or godaddy being
in that league.
Perhaps with this many records just using a wldcard would be simpler?
Then again maybe this is a new tld, or old one being consolidated?

I am studying the scalability and performance characteristics of

Fedora 10 x86_64 on a 32GB RAM machine and use the Bind that comes
with it for this experiment.
If you have any suggestions or comments regarding how to accomplish
this with Bind, it would be greatly helpful.
Specifically, I would like to know what build or config options I
would have to tweak to make it work best for this scale.
If you plan to use a plain zone file for the 50 million records,
rather than using a separate backend database, you may want to
precompile your zone file by named-compilezone. It will make load
time twice as short as it is with the plain text format.
