I've just downloaded the most recent com net org and edu zone files and
have extracted the nameserver records for each.
Zone Number of DNS
YR 2000 YR 1999 % Growth
com 284487 134333 111.8
edu 7218 6506 10.9
net 172189 ? ?
org 135419 61739 119.3
Totals 599313
The net number of servers for the above zones is 317504 (net of duplicates).
Last year the BIND 1999 survey discovered 134333 servers in the .com zone,
6506 in the .edu zone and 61739 in the .org zone.
the .com and .org zones have grown by over 110%.
