The other day, a FreeBSD 'expert' told me that it is important to
have the DNS server for a domain on the same server as the domain's

the network. Instead, they are done locally.
This makes sense to me, but I wonder if the performance difference
is really that significant?

If you head down this road you might want to only make it a caching
DNS server, not your primary or secondary for sure. Unless you are
limited on available hardware.
