I was under the impression the problem was dotless hostnames conflicting with search.
That's not the problem motivating custom resolvers.
I don't see why multiple standard queries has any bearing, dns queries are cheap
Please go read about the problem space. Seriously. Start with the fact that the OS DNS resolution services are blocking and don't allow timing out requests, meaning that to do N DNS lookups without being screwed by one of them being slow on some DNS server somewhere you need N separate threads.
Please point me in the direction.
