Is that what was reporting the times? You can see the times reported by dig and time on Linux differed a bit. > Uncached attempts using OpenDNS's 208.67.222.222 on Mac (I hate to use this > network as the benchmark, its quite loaded down) and the poor Macbook is > doing a USB file transfer. Network is kinda moot, I was more curious on if there was any delay coming from a different networking stack. Since Linux tends to be faster than Windows at most network related operations. Crazy to say the network is moot, since delays can come from that and be passed on. But in reality so many variables, starting with usage of the nic on the local machine :) Almost need a dead inactive machine and network to do pure tests without any other factors. Then there is still the real world out there, and I doubt any query would be exactly the same time wise. -- William L.
