Cool. What is the file size of the DNS database being quarried with each request anyway? My knee jerk assumption is that it’s like a petabyte, but the longer I think about it, the smaller it gets.
I actually don’t remember, I was mainly focused on the BGP configurations and data collection for presenting to our leadership. I think unbound allowed you to configure the cache size. Our servers were just cache servers, so if they did not have a record the server would just recurse the request.
