RE: anycast
Having your customers get proper and valid data, seems more important than the query time. Queries to the Root servers should be a "rareish" thing as your local servers should be caching those results. So if it takes me 100ms to get a reply from a root, I won't be asking it again for that data for quite some time, eg hours, days, etc. john brown le geek > > Having almost all of your customers' DNS lookups take 10 ms > instead of 100 or 200 ms may also be of some value. > > Definitely seems interesting to me, even though issues with > keeping data > up-to-date are of critical importance here. > > -- > Pekka Savola "Tell me of difficulties surmounted, > Netcore Oy not those you stumble over and fall" > Systems.
