Very interresting, can you tell us more, i.e. are these conventional dns_gueries? Are these being sent and received on port 53 (or some other port)? What is the proto, tcp or udp? What kind of flags are set in the IP headers? What does top (or a "ps -aux") show? Are these queries going out to gtld and/or root servers, i.e. where are the destinations and/or sources? Do you see any aberrations in your syslog?
Might be fun to sleuth this thing out....
