I just tried 

        clients-per-query 250;
        max-clients-per-query 1000;

and it did not help. I noticed a drop in the number of recursing clients and
the number of queries/s when a lookup failed for the local zone but named
logged no special messages in the syslog.

Is is possible that is this connected to rndc stats? I will stop doing
rndc stats for a while to test (it currently runs every minute).

BTW: I also excluded packet loss as cause of the problem.

Regards,

Michael Brunnbauer
