| Redis (nor any other nosql database) doesn’t really have the properties we need for finding closest enclosers, doing partial matches nor really the performance.

By the way, have you ever considered using Redis as an in-memory
cache database? I’ve been thinking about offloading some of the
TTL expiry and cache management to Redis.
In
some customer environments, the query volume is extremely high —
we’re using Mellanox CX-6 25G interfaces, which already handle a
lot of offloading and fair IRQ distribution at the NIC level — so
I wonder if you ever ran into performance limitations with Redis
under similar loads, or decided against it for architectural
reasons.
Just curious....
Thank you

I don’t know. You were the first one to actually provided a reproducer and a usable test case. Despite your exaggeration about “countless” reports there were not that many of them actually.
How many zones can a bind instance handle realistically?
Internally, we are testing BIND 9 with 1M small zones and it works just fine.
What happened was that 9.20 introduced a new database backend called QP that replaced venerable custom red-black tree implementation we had. The side effect of that was 12K memory chunk overhead per zone. Under normal conditions, this would not manifest as that 12K would get filled with the zone data, but in the case of almost empty zone, the memory chunk would be mostly empty and it just blew up the memory requirements.
BIND 9.22 will contain an optimization that gradually increases the memory chunk size and that allows “auto tuning” for both small zones, large zones and the cache.
