No, there is no DNS cache in mozilla 0.9.  We just landed the DNS cache
yesterday.   There are two preferences that use can use to control the
cache:

network.dnsCacheEntries            : the maximum number of lookups that
will be cached (default is 32)
network.dnsCacheExpiration      : the number of seconds until a lookup
expires (default is 300, or 5 minutes)

We don't not have access to the Time To Live value for lookups so we're
trying to strike a balance between client and server sides.  Clients would
like to cache a lookup forever, but this conflicts with some server farms.

There is no UI for these preferences, but you can add them to your
prefs.js if you would like to change the defaults.
