Aaron, Thanks for your detailed report! What I'd love to know is if the recursor or the auth server was using up all that CPU. Additionally, could you run 'vmstat 1' to get the 'user', 'system' and 'idle' loads? I have no reports of PowerDNS being painfully slow, and in fact, I know some installations are doing much much more traffic than you are doing in such a configuration. Does the auth server generate any logging? It is known to be a bit chatty about problems communicating with its resolver. Please let me know!
